Extract

The original specimen of the stem with secondary wood, to which the name Palæopitys Milleri was given by M'Nab in 1870, was found by Hugh Miller in a nodule half disinterred by the sea near Cromarty; its age was shown by the remains of Coccosteus decipiens in other nodules of the deposit, and by scales of Diplacanthus in the nodule containing the wood.
