Abstract
In 1925 Professor A. E. Trueman handed to the writer a copy of Professor Bertrand's paper, “Les Zones Végétales du Terrain Houiller du Nord de la France” (1914, p. 208), with the suggestion that it would be interesting to find out whether the succession of plants in South Wales is similar to that of the North of France, and to determine whether Bertrand's zones can be applied to the Coal Measures of South Wales. Since that time every opportunity has been taken to collect fossil plants from known horizons in South Wales and other coalfields. In addition, specimens have been examined in all the important museums and private collections, and in particular in the collections of the late Dr R. Kidston, which are now preserved in the Museum of Practical Geology.
