Part of four pinnules of Cladophhbis Albertsii (Dunk.). Twice natural size. pinnules, four of vt^hich are shown in the Figure. All of the pinnules have very acute apices, and some are distinctly falcate. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. V. 10695. One of the pinnae in this specimen is very clearly preserved, and shows in many of the pinnules a distinctly dentate margin near the apex. The distal end of the pinna shows the characteristic broadly serrate form of the segments and their finely pointed teeth; the same characters appear, but much less marked, in some of the pinnae shown in PI. VIII. V. 2794. Near Sastings. Presented by P. Rufford, Esg^., 1885. V. 2175. This small piece of a pinna is one of those specimens about which it is to decide ; it has been referred to C. Albertsii with some hesitation. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. V, 2190. Yenation distinct. A fragment of Sphenopteris Fittoni, sp. nov., on the same piece of rock. Ecclesbourne. Rvfford Coll. V. 2197. The lower part of a frond. Rachis broad and strongly- curved. Some of the pinnules show indistinct traces of a dentate margin. Fragments of Omjchiopsis Mantelli (Brong.). V. 2197«!. Fragments from lower part of frond. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. V. 2198. The pinnae are given off almost at right angles to the rachis, and the pinnules are very closely arranged. Ecclesbourne.
