Strasburger describes structure of [illeg] of Scolecopteris especially of the sporangia preserved in Permian Chalcedony.—
[Quarterly Journal of the Microscopical Society, "Scolecopteris. — E. Strasburger describes in the 'Jenaische Zeitschrift' (1874, pp. 81-95) the structure (especially of the sporangia) of Scolecopteris elegans, Zenk., a species of Marattiaceæ from the Permian of Chemnitz. The details were perfectly preserved in chalcedony, which allowed admirable sections to be studied. In an additional plate he figures the structure of the sori of Angiopteris evecta, and Marattia Kaulfussii." p. 302.]
