Abstract
IN a previous memoir, published in the Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada, vol. i., the author had noticed a lower cretaceous flora consisting wholly of pines and cycads occurring in the Queen Charlotte Islands, and had described a dicotyledonous flora of Middle Cretaceous age from the country adjacent to the Peace River, and also the rich Upper Cretaceous flora of the coal formation of Vancouver's Island—comparing these with the flora of the Laramie series of the North-West Territory, which he believed to constitute a transition group connecting the Upper Cretaceous with the Eocene Tertiary.
