Lesquereux (in part), Coal Flora in Pennsyl. pl. ii. fig. 1. Remarks.-The type of Asterophyllites foliosa, L. and H., is preserved in the Hutton Collection, Newcastle-on-Tyne. I have examined this specimen, and cannot discover any character by which it can be distinguished from Annularia radiata, Brongt. sp. It is a plant of frequent occurrence in the Scotch Coal Fields, so I have had many opportunities of examining specimens of this species. Asterophyllites galioides, L. and H., is probably only a small branchlet of their A. foliosa. Notwithstanding the slight differences pointed out by Weiss between his Asterophyllites radiiformis and Annularia (Asterophyllites) radiata, Brongt. sp., I am inclined to regard his plant as referable to Brongniart's species. Annularia longifolia, Lesqx. (in part), (Coal Flora in Pennsyl. pl. 2, fig. 1), is also, I think, referable to Annularia radiata. Schimper unites here Hydatica prostrata, Artis, and Hydatica columnaris, Artis. These are the Pinnularia capillacea, L. and H., and well-known to be roots; similar fossils have been found attached to Calamite stems as their rootlets; but it is more than probable that the so-called Pinnularia are the rootlets of several plants, hence we are scarcely warranted in uniting them with Annularia radiata, though in all likelihood this plant had rootlets similar in character to Pinnularia.
