ARALIA DIGITATA Ward.

ARALIA DIGITATA Ward. Lesquereux, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., Vol. XI, p. 20, Pl. XI, fig. 4, 1888.

Locality.—Cherry Creek, Crook County, Oregon. Collected by Maj. Charles E. Bendire (U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 2424).

ARALIA sp. ?

Aralia notata Lesq., Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., Vol. XI, p. 20, 1888.

The collection contains the example referred to Aralia notata by Lesquereux and a fragment of the base of another. There is hardly sufficient data to warrant placing them in this species, and until further material can be obtained it seems best to leave them as above indicated.

Locality.—Cherry Creek, Crook County, Oregon. Collected by Maj. Charles E. Bendire (U. S. Nat. Mus., Nos. 2426, 2430).

ARALIA ? sp. Knowlton.

Pl. XVI, fig. 8.

ARALIA ? sp., Knowlton in Merriam, Univ. Cal., Bull. Dept. Geol., Vol. II, No. 9, p. 289, 1901.

A fragment of what appears to be the upper part of a lobe of an Aralia. It has an entire margin and alternate, much curved, rather thin secondaries.

This may be the upper portion of a single leaf like Juglans, but on the slab appears more like Aralia. If this latter view be true, its form can only be conjectured.

Locality.—Three miles above Clarnos Ferry. Collected by Merriam's expedition of 1900 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 912).

ARALIA sp., Knowlton.

Plate XV, fig. 4.

ARALIA sp., Knowlton in Merriam, Univ. Cal., Bull. Dept. Geol., Vol. II, No. 9, p. 289, 1901.

The fragmentary upper portion of a large leaf, showing portions of three lobes. The lobes are some 5 or 6 cm. in length and about 3 cm. in width. They appear to be without teeth.

It is impossible to tell from this fragment what it is. It may be the upper portion of a moderate sized leaf of Aralia Whitneyi Lesq.

Locality.—Three miles above Clarnos Ferry. Collected by Merriam's expedition of 1900 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 913).

ARALIA WHITNEYI ? Lesq.

ARALIA WHITNEYI Lesq., Foss. Pl. Aurif. Gravel, p. 20, Pl. V, fig. 1, 1878; Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., Vol. XI, p. 16, 1888.

The early collection from Van Horn's ranch contained a single example that Lesquereux referred with some doubt to this species, and the later collection also contains a single specimen which I assume to belong here. It is a smaller leaf than the figured type, which is itself much smaller than the normal-sized leaves, and naturally has shorter lobes, but it can hardly be anything else.

Locality.—Van Horn's ranch, about 12 miles west of Mount Vernon, Grant County, Oregon. Collected by Maj. Charles E. Bendire (U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 2429). Smaller specimen obtained by Merriam's expedition in 1900 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 845).
