from the cuneate base or a slight distance above, running from:
thence to the tips of the lobes. From" I.5 era. to 4 cm. above
their origin the lateral primaries send off stout, lateral, more or
less subordinate branches which run to the tips o,f the subordinate
lobes. These latter may" nearly equal the principal lobes as they
do in the complete specimen figured by Newberry in 1898, or
they may be more or less reduced as they are in the large specimen
figured by the same author from Woodbridge, in which theone
on the right side is apparently but slightly developed. These
lobes are also subordinate in the dainty little lea{ of this species
figured in the present report from the ttylton Pits, The secondaries
are numerous and camptodrome as a rule, although a singleone
in the last-mentioned specimen runs directly to a prominent.
serrate point on the lower side of the subordinate lobe, a short
distance below its apex.
Although fragmentary remains of this handsome species were
discovered during the work of the Hayden Smwey in Kansas,
and were described by Lesquereux in I876, the subsequently-.
collected, more complete material has never been adequatelydescribed.

including it in leaves showing a quite considerable remge of:
