228 BOTANY OF THE DEATH VALLEY EXPEDITION. 



Pellaea ornithopus Hook. Sp. Fil. ii. 143 (1858). Typo locality, "California;" 

 range, from Shasta County to San Diego, and extending into Arizona. 

 In the valley of the Kaweah River (No. 1349). 



Pellaea densa (Brack.) Bot. Wilkes Exped. xvi. 120 (1854), under Qnyohium; Hook. 

 Sp. Fil. ii. 150 (1858). Type locality, on the banks of Rogue River, Oregon; 

 range, Sierras of California, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, British Columbia, and on 

 Mount Albert, Gaspe, Quebec. 



Near Mineral King, Sierra Nevada (No. 1454). 



Pellaea bridgesii Hook. Sp. Fil. ii. 238 (1858). Type locality, ''mountains, interior 

 of California;" range, Sierras of California, also dwarf specimens collected near He- 

 lena, Montana. 



Near Mineral King (No. 1418). 



Cryptogramma acrostichoides R. Br. in Richards. Bot. App. 707 (1823). Type lo- 

 cality, British America between N. Lat. 50° and 60 J , first found by Menzies at Nootka 

 Sound; range, from Arctic America to Colorado and California. 



In the high Sierra Nevada, near Mineral King (No. 1502). 



Adiantum emarginatum Hook, in Eaton, Ferns N. A. i. 285 (1879). Type locality 

 not known, said to be Mauritius, but undoubtedly California; range, Oregon and 

 California. 



Along an irrigating ditch at Vegas Ranch, Nevada (No. 2154), and about a spring 

 in the Panamint Mountains (No. 621). The reasons for adopting for this very dis- 

 tinct species the name emarginatum are given in the Ferns of North America. In 

 the Species Filicum Hooker gives no good character for the fern, but his figure is ex- 

 cellent for the Californian plant, and resembles nothing known from the Indian 

 Ocean. I am glad to follow Keyseiling in adopting Hooker's name, 



Adiantum pedatum L. Sp. PL ii. 1095 (1753). Type locality, Canada and Vir- 

 ginia; range, from New Brunswick to British Columbia, southward to Alabama and 

 California; also in Alaska, Japan, Mantchooria, and the Himalayas.

 and Mexico to Guatemala, and probably Peru. 



Iu the valley of the Kaweah River (No. 1343). A single frond of the American 

 form of the species, in which, as is well known, the chaffy proliferous bud near the 

 apex of the frond has not yet been noticed,
