: XX.— Description of a New Species of KAULFUSSIA, found in 
Upper Assam. By WiriLiAM GmirriTH, Esg., Assistant 
Surgeon, Madras Establishment. 
[With a Figure, Tas. XI. XII.] 
(Or this very rare genus Kaulfussia, one of the most remarkable of the 
Order Filices, the original species was detected and named by Blume. A 
second species has recently been discovered by Mr Griffith in Assam, and. 
. described in a Memoir published in India, which that gentleman has been 
. 80good as to send us. The description refers to a figure which, as it ap- 
. Pears, should have accompanied the Memoir, but I do not find that any of 
the eopies sent to this country possess this plate. Through the kindness 
the Honourable W. H. Harvey, we are enabled to give a figure from 
an authentic specimen in his possession. The description is quoted verba- 
tim Eom the work above alluded to. —E»p.)
