Per Australiam orientalem ab Illawarra saltem usque ad Rocking- 
ham's Bay, extra Australiam orientalem et Tasmaniam nondum 
nota. 
Stipes et raches sepe straminei. Divisio frondis modo simplicior, 
modo magis composita. Pinnularum segmenta 1—4" lata. Ubi 
ven: ims e rachi oriuntur, ibi eosta fere semper secus rachin 
deorsum vergit; hie character in planta Australiana sepe mani- 
festus. Sori interdum omnem segmentorum marginem cingunt, 
quo modo serraturz evanescunt. Form: maeriores P. acquilinam 
aliquotenus simulant. Comparavi largam copiam speciminum e 
regione mediterranea, alia e Teneriffa a Burgeau allata et alia e 
terra Capensi.
