No. 208, Goodenough Bay, on dry banks of creeks. 
This species is considerably more dissected than D. ludens ever is. It is very 
near the American D. ped^ta (L.). but larger and less coriaceous than any of 
my specimens of that variable fern; and I have never seen D. pedata with the 
basal segments so much cut on the lower side while the upper remained entire. 
^ The genus is new to New Guinea, the nearest occurrence hitherto known bein- 
in Hawaii, South America, and the Philippines. °
