THE DEVONIAN FLOKA Ot TIIK, DEVONIAN. The state of our knowledge of thi subject at the time when the writer commenced his labours n[ujn it, nuiy be hinied from tt'c fol- lowing extract from his \nx]>v' 18GI, alreau' referred to :â " The known flora of th rocks old' than the Carboniferous system has until recently been very scan'y, . ud is still not vary extensive. In Goeppert's recent memoir in tlif flora of the !Siluri;i'i, JJevonian, and Lower Carboniferoub rocks,* he ^numerates twenty species as Silurian, but these are all admitted to bo Algic, nnd several of them are remains claimed by the zoologists as zoophytes, or uuilb of worms and moUusks. In the Lower Devoni m, he knows but six species, five of which arc Alga3, and the remaining one a >Sigillaria. In the Middle Devonian he gives bnt one species, a land plant of the genus Sagenaria. In the Upper Devonian the number rises to fifty-seven, of which all but seven are terrestrial plants, representing a large num- ber of the genera occurring in the succeeding Carboniferous system. "Goeppert does not include in his enumeration the plants from the
