foliage represented by _Eremopteris artemisaefolia_ and _Pecopteris Pluckeneti_, also by some members of the Cordaitales (_e.g._ fig. 480). Dr Arber[453] has recently proposed a new generic name _Cornucarpus_ for _Cardiocarpon acutum_, but the drawings that he gives of seeds from the Kent coal-field referred to this species suggest a type distinct from that of Lindley and Hutton. In the absence of specimens showing actual attachment it is impossible to say how the seeds were borne, but the analogy of _Wardia fertilis_ and _Pecopteris Pluckeneti_ lends support to the view that the seeds were attached to pinnules with a reduced lamina. _Eremopteris artemisaefolia_ occurs in the Lower and Middle Coal Measures of England: a species recorded by Kidston from the Calciferous sandstone of Scotland as _E. Macconochii_[454] is now believed by that author to be generically distinct[455]. With the exception of the unsatisfactory specimen reproduced in fig. 443, B, we have no information with regard to the habit of the stem to which the _Eremopteris_ leaves were attached.
