✦ Synopsis

We report magnetoresistance measurements on ET, KHg(SCN), and /3"ET2 AuBr,. Both show Shubnikov-de Haas oscillation frequencies additional to those expected from band structure calculations, and other magnetoresistance anomalies occur (e.g. hysteresis, "kink" structures). These effects are explained qualitatively by band structure modifications produced by magnetic ordering.
