This is Don's Anomalopteris longifolia, so called in his 
collections, though differing frem the insufficient and inaccurate 
description in the * Gardener's Dictionary." Tt cannot, how- 
ever, be the 4. Guineensis of Adrien Jussieu, which that author 
particularly describes as having very coriaceous leaves, whereas 
those of this plant are even more membranous than in A. 
Smeathmanni.
