Marattiaceae, and holds that the former should be associated with the 

 latter among the eusporangiate ferns. As to the Marsiliacege, he thinks 

 that recent work justifies the assumption that their relationship with 

 the Schizaeacese is not very remote, the resemblance between the sporo- 

 carp of Marsilia and the fertile leaf-segment of Schizcm being specially 

 marked. 



Asplenium Seelosii Leybold.* — M. Calegari has found this rare fern 

 near the village of Rasa, on the mountain called " Campo dei Fiori," a 

 hill to the north of Yarese, in Lombardy. It occurred at a height of 

 850 m., considerably lower, therefore, than the lowest limit given by 

 Hartinger and Dalla Torre (1300-2000 m.). The author believes that 

 the record of this species from Istria, found in certain books, is erroneous ; 

 and he points out that in Arcangeli's " Compendio," the name of 

 Salorno, a locality for A. Seelosii between Trento and Balzano, has, by 

 a printer's error, been changed to Salerno.
