Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal (1829 Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal edinburghnewphil07edin Year: 1829 - 1829 298 On the Fresh-water Formations of Aix, in Provence. Description of the Plants alluded to in the preceding Memoir. By J. LiNDLEY, Esq. F. R. S. F. G. S. L. S. &;c. and Professor of Bo- tany in the University of London. M, Appears to be the terminal pinna of some articulated compound leaf. I have no doubt that it belongs to some Leguminosa, either of the tribe of Lolets, or Phaseoliee of M. De CandoUe's arrangement. To what particular species, I am not at present able to state. A, Is the leaf of Podocarpus macrophylla 7 B, Is apparently the branch of some Thuja., nearly related to Thuja articulata. C, Are leaves of Lauras dulcis? or, if not, of a species of cinnamon that can- not be distinguished from it by these specimens. C * is the best spe- cimen. D, Is the fruit of some plant, but in too imperfect a state to be determined. E, Is very like Buxus Balearka; but it is perhaps something else, and can- not be determined. F, Is a leaf, but of so common a form, that it could not be safe to offer even a conjecture about it. G, Is the stem of an herbaceous plant; but there is no evidence to shew what it was. Of the recent plants referred to in the annexed memoran- dum, Podocar/)?^^/«fl<ro/;i?/a and Laiirus dulcis are natives of India, Buxus Balearica of the Mediterranean, and Thuja articulata of the coast of Barbary.
