Locality
From Hollick (1930) (p. 58)
"Port Moller, 2 miles up the canyon, west from Mud Bay, Alaska Peninsula (original No. 35); collected by W. W. Atwood and H. M. Eakin in 1908 (lot 5187) (pl. 19, fig. 7a). Yukon River, north bank, about 16 miles below Melozi telegraph station (original Nos. 3AH14, 3AH14a); collected by Arthur Hollick and Sidney Paige in 1903 (lot 3251) (pl. 25, fig. 7)."
Description
From Hollick (1930) (p. 58)
"Plate 19, Figure7a; Plate 25, Figure 7"
"Sequoia rigida Heer, Die Kreide-Flora der arctischen Zone: Flora fossilis arctica, vol. 3, No.2, pp. 80, 91, 102, 128, pl. 22, figs 5g, 11a; pl. 25, fig. 6; pl. 27, figs. 8a, 9a, 9b, 10, 11, 12a, 13, 14, 1874." (Heer 1874)
Remarks
From Hollick (1930) (p. 58)
"These fragmentary specimens are referred provisionally to this species. They agree in general characters with Heer's figures of specimens from the Kome and Atane beds of Greenland quite as satisfactorily as certain specimens from the Potomac group of Virginia and Maryland, referred to the species by Fontaine (1889) (p. 246, pl. 118, figs.3, 3a; pl. 121, figs. 2, 2a; pl. 130, figs. 3, 3a) and Berry (1911) (p. 447, pl. 78, fig. 8). It appears to be probable that in any critical revision of the genus a considerable rearrangement of this and other species of similar leaf characters (S. smittiana Heer, S. subulata Heer; etc.) would result."
