page 222 note 1 It may be mentioned here that a silicified Dadoxylon from the Carboniferous deposits of Spitzbergen described by Dr. Gothan (loc. cit.) does not show any annual rings at all, precisely as is the case with the corresponding Palæozoic stems of Europe. As observed to me by Mr. Th. Halle, this is a most curious circumstance, since the darkness during the long winter night in those regions—provided that the position of the North Pole was the same as now—ought to have caused an interruption of the growth, even if the climate was a warm and genial one. As the specimen, however, was not found in situ it is possible that it originates from some marine deposit into which the wood had been brought by ocean currents from more southern latitudes. But also a Dadoxylon from the Triassic of Spitzbergen shows only slight indications of annual rings (Gothan, loc. cit.).
