98 THE RARITAN FLORA.
Description--."ramulis elongatis, virgatis, foliis omnino tectis,
foliis, subfalcatis, angustis, apice valde attenuatis, uninerviis,
rarnis adultis pulvinis rhombeis obtectls." Heer, I87t.
This species, like Sequoi_ Refchenbachi, occurs sparingly at the
Woodbridge horizon, and like the latter is more abundant in the
overlying Magoihy fomlatio,1_ at Cliffwood bluff. It resembles
this species considerably, but may be distinguished by the thicker
twigs with decurrent pointed leaves, which are more curved and
less rigid than in the Sequoia and with smaller intermediate scalelike
leaves, which are altogether wanting in the latter. Geinitzia
formosa was described originally from the Senonian of Saxony,
and it also ranges upwards into the iMbntana formation of
Wyoming. It is another species which serves'co ally the Raritan
with younger deposits elsewhere.
