Abstract
UNTIL the three specimens from the English Aptian in the British Museum were recognised as Angiosperms and described in my paper (Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc., series B, vol. cciii., pp. 75”100, plates v”viii, and kindly reviewed in NATURE, August 22, p. 641), Angiosperms were supposed not to have existed in northern Europe at that early date. Those three specimens came from two different localities, which minimised the chances of error, but it is highly satisfactory to have to record the discovery of another specimen from a new locality.
