integra, obtusa, j-3 poll. longa, 3-3 poll. lata, subcoriacea, 
supra et subtus nuda, margine revoluta, costa et venis primariis 
lateralibus conspicuis inira margines anastomosantibus, areolis 
et venulis tenuissimis, soris 2-3, majusculis, uniseriatis inter 
costam et marginem propius ad costam quam marginem. (Herb. 
Hongkong Bot. Gard. n. 854.) 
This small fern was collected in Wei-hai-wei by Staff-Surgeon 
C. G. Mathew, R.N., of H.M.S. ‘Eclipse? who has presented 
useful eollections of plants from Corea, Wei-hai-wei, and 
Shanghai to the Hongkong Herbarium. He has also made 
several additions to the Flora of Hongkong. 
Mr. C. H. Wright has kindly informed me that the species 1s 
near P. oodes, Kunze. It is much smaller than P. oodes and the 
sori are in series instead of being scattered.
