adopted under its proper genus; Hayata's type was also from Arisan. It 

 may be mentioned here that Lycopodium fauriei Rosenst. (1915) is identical 

 with Lycopodium tereticaule Hayata (1914). 



CONIOGRAMME Fee 



CONIOGRAMME FRAXINEA (Don) Diels in Engl. & Prantl Nat. Pflan- 

 zenfam. 1 4 (1899) 262. 



Kwangtung Province, Loh Fau Mountain (Lofaushan), Merrill 10866, 

 Levine lb-85, August 25, 1917, in thickets, slopes of damp shaded ravines, 

 altitude about 1,000 meters; abundant locally. 



Japan to Madagascar, tropical Australia, and Polynesia; not previously 

 recorded from Kwangtung Province. 



HYPOLEPIS Bernhardi 



HYPOLEPIS PUNCTATA (Thunb.) Mett. in Kuhn Fil. Afr. (1868) 120. 



Kwangtung Province, Loh Fau Mountain (Lofaushan), Levine 1^66, 

 August 15, 1917, scattered in damp forested ravines, altitude about 1,000 

 meters. 



This widely distributed species does not appear to be recorded from 

 Kwangtung Province; it is placed by C. Christensen in the genus Dryopteris, 

 as D. punctata (Thunb.) C. Chr. 



LOXOGRAMME Presl 



LOXOGRAMME FAURIEI Copel. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 11 (1916) Bot. 

 45, t. 1, f. 5. 



Kwangtung Province, Loh Fau Mountain (Lofaushan), Merrill 1081,1, 

 107U0, October 28, 1916, August 18, 1917, on wet cliffs and boulders in 

 damp shaded ravines, altitude 1,000 to 1,050 meters. 



This form is probably included by Dunn & Tutcher in Gymnogramme 

 lanceolata Hook. — Loxo gramme lanceolata (Sw.) Presl, a species of the 

 Mascarene Islands and one that does not extend to China. For the Indo- 

 Malayan form commonly identified as Loxogramme lanceolata, Copeland 

 has proposed the name Loxogramme malayana Copel. The Kwangtung 

 specimens have distinctly long-stipitate fronds and certainly represent the 

 Formosan species described by Copeland as Loxogramme fauriei, and are 

 not referable to Loxogramme malayana Copel. 



Loxogramme linearis Copel. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 11 (1916) Bot. 45, 

 t. 2, f. 8 is identical with Loxogramme remote-frondigerum Hayata Ic. PI. 

 Formos. 5 (1915) 323 (Polypodium remote-frondigerum Hayata 1. c. /. 135, 

 A-B) and should be reduced to the latter. 



PLAGIOGYRIA Mettenius 



PLAGIOGYRIA CHRISTM Copel. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 1 (1906) Suppl. 153. 



Kwangtung Province, Loh Fau Mountain (Lofaushan), Merrill 10669, 

 August 17, 1917, in damp shaded ravines along small streams, altitude 

 about 1,100 meters; rare. 



The specimen is an excellent match for the type of Copeland's species, 

 the pinnae being rather more distant than in the Philippine specimens.
