Neuropteris biformis Lesquereux (form) D. White.

Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 6, 1895, p. 317. [Pottsville group; Sewell formation].

Neuropteris Elrodi Lesquereux (form) D. White.
Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 6, 1895, p. 317. [Pottsville group; Sewell formation].

Neuropteris tenuifolia (Schlotheim) Sternberg.
Flora d. Vorwelt (Tentamen), 1825, p. xvii. [Pottsville group ; Clark formation].
Species characteristic of the upper Pottsville, especially the Mercer group. The plant referred by Fontaine (Amer. Jour. Sci., New Haven, vol. 11, 1876, p. 380), to this species is undoubtedly referable to the N. Smithii type.

Neuropteris flexuosa Sternberg.
Flora d. Vorwelt (Tentamen), 1825, p. xvi, pl. xxxii, fig. 2. D. White: Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 11, 1900, p. 164. [Pottsville group; Kanawha formation.]
Abundant in the Kanawha formation and the Mercer coal group. The species from the Dunkard formation listed (Second Geol. Surv. Pa., Rept. Prog. PP, p. 49), under this name is quite distinct.

Neuropteris Planchardi var. longifolia (Fontaine & 1. C. White) D. White.
Second Geol. Surv. Pa., Rept. Prog. PP, 1880, p. 49, pl. viii, fig. i. D. White: Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 14, 1903 [1904], p. 540. [Dunkard formation (Permian).]
This variety is specifically distinct from N. flexuosa.

Neuropteris Lindleyana Sternb., var. Fontaine.
Am. Jour. Sci., 3rd ser., vol. 11, 1876, p. 381. [Pottsville group; Quinnimont formation].
The species listed under this name is probably the N. Pocahontas D. White.

Neuropteris rarinervis Bunbury.
Quart. Jour. Geol. Soc., London, vol. 3, 1847, p. 425, pl. xxii. D. White: Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 11, 1900, p. 169. [Pottsville group; Kanawha formation]. [Also in Allegheny formation].
Plant unknown below the "Mercer Coal group" and upper Kanawha.

Neuropteris sp. cf. gigantea Sternberg.
Flora d. Vorwelt (Tentamen). 1825, p. xvii, pl. xxii. D. White: Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol. 11, 1900, p. 163. [Pottsville group; Kanawha formation.]

Type is strictly Pottsville.

Neuropteris ovata Hoffman.
Teutschl. geogn. geol. dargest., Weimar, vol. 4, 1826, p. 159, pl. 1b, figs. 5-8. D. White: Bull. Geol. Soc. Am., vol
