Nova-Scoticn. spec. nov. M. C, Joggins (J. W. D.). Ribs equal, less than a line wide, striated longitudinally. Joints obscurely marked, and with circular areolcs separated by the breadth of three to four ribs. Bark of moderate thickness. 8. C. nodosus, Schloth. (Fig. IQ3, C). This species has long slender branchlets, with close whorls of short rigid leaves. M. C, Sydney (R. Brown); Grand Lake (C. F. Ilartt). 9. C. arenaceus (?), Jiiger. This species is mentioned with doubt in Lyell's list. Equisetites, Sternberg. Equisetites curta, spec. nov. (Fig. 164). Short thick stems, enlarging upward, and truncate above; joints numerous; sheaths as long as the joints, with acuminate keeled points. Lateral branches or fruit with longer leaf-like points. lias the characters of Equisetites ; but its affinities are quite uncertain. M. C, Sydney (R. Brown). ASTEKOI'HYLLITES, BrOUgU. 1. Asterophyllites foliosa, L. and H. M. C, Joggins (J. W. D.); Sydney (R. Brown). Springhill (C. F. Ilartt). 2. A. grandis, Sternberg (?). The specimens resemble this species, but are not certainly the same. Logan's specimens have terminal spikes of fructification. M. C, Grand Lake (C. F. Hartt); Bay do Chalcur (Logan); Sydney (Bunbury). Springhill (C. F. Hartt). 3. Asterophyllites, sp. A species with tubercles (fruit) in the axils is mentioned in Lyell's list as from Sydney. I have not seen it, but have a specimen from Mr Brown similar to A, tuberculata, Sternberg, which may be the same. 4. A. trinervis, spec. nov. (Fig. 165, A). Main stem smooth, delicately striate, with leaves at the nodes. Branches delicately striate, with numerous whorls of linear nearly straight leaves, 0-5 inch long, twenty or more in
