See I. G. White's Report Q3, Q4, for its occurrences in N. W. Penn- sylvania. XII—The Sharon coal bed between the middle and lower divisions of the Gonglomerate has roofshales which are often quite rich in fossil plants; for example at the Snyder Goal Go's shaft in Mercer Co. Here the 35 feet of shales are crowded with them; and of several species of Lepidodendra. Other excellent localities are the Morris Go's shafts; and Oak- land mine No. 1.—Lesquereux says that lep, brittsii^ found in the Glinton coalbed of Missouri, is typically allied to ; and in Pennsylvania this last is abundant in the sub conglomerate shales. Lepidodendron carinatum. Lesq. Geol.
