5. _Wetherellia_; pulpy fruits divided into two lobes by the expansion of the ripe seeds. As the section thus exposed bears some resemblance to a coffee-berry, these fossils are popularly called petrified coffee-berries. This genus has no known living representative. _Lign. 63, fig. 4_. 6. Fruits allied to the Palm tribe. (_Nipadites_). _Lign._ 63, _fig._ 9, and 10. 7. Fruits of leguminous plants, differing from any known recent. _Lign._ 64, _figs._ 1, 2, 3, 4. 8. Seeds, allied to the _Amomum_, or Cardamom tribe. _Lign. 64, fig. 5_. 9. Seeds of _Cupressinites_, or plants related to the Cypress. 10. Seeds resembling those of the _Laburnum_. 11. Seed-pod of a species of _Acacia_, or _Mimosa_. _Lign. 64, fig. 7._--2/3 _nat._ [Illustration: Lign. 63.

Atlas_, pl. vi. vii.)--The most remarkable fruits in the above catalogue are those which, from their appearance when compressed, are known to collectors by the name of "_petrified figs_" (_Lign. 63, fig. 9, 10_). Some specimens attain a considerable size, and are from five to seven inches long. The nut, and the pericarp or shell, are often well preserved. These fossils were referred to the _Cocos_ by Mr. Parkinson, but they have not a ligneous endocarp with three pores as in the Cocoa-nut.
