Colposoria, EudavaUia.— Rhizoma repens, paleis lineari-su- 

 bulatis, brevi-ciliatis, brunneis, démuni obscuris dense vestitum. 

 Stipites remoti, glabri. Frondes graciliter 4 — 5-pinnatifidae, deltoi- 

 deae, acntae vel acuminatae, in sicco brunneae, glabrae, tenuiter 

 coriaceae. Pinnae patentes, infimae longiores, pinnulis basalibus 

 posterioribns longioribns. Segmenta ultima parva, oblonge linearia 

 apice saepe 2 — 3-dentata, vel oblonga basi cuneata et parte su- 

 periore 4 — 8-dentata. Sori in apicibus dilatatis segmentorum 

 fertilium solitarii ; indusium semicylindricum vel suburceolato- 

 elongatum, apice apicem segraenti haud attingens et dentibus 

 vel cornibus 1 — 2 superans. 



Between D. dissecta J. Sm. and fijiensis Hk. — Rhizome 

 scales rounded and peltate at the base, the higher ones paler, 

 ascending, the lower more spreading. Stipes câ 10 — 20 cm. 

 long. Fronds deltoid-ovate, ca 15—30 cm. each way. Pinnae 

 more or less oblique, the lowest triangular, 8—1(3 cm. long, 5—10 

 cm. broad at the base, acuminate, the lowest posterior pinnule 

 the largest. Ultimate segments 3 — 6 mm. long, 1 — 2 mm. broad, 

 the teeth acute or bluntish. Main rachis naked, marginale in the 

 upper half; partial rachises naked, narrovvly winged; veins 1 to 

 each tooth: no spurious veinlets. Indusia ca 2 — 3 times as long 

 as broad, often somewhat narrowed at or near the apex, the 

 apex rather truncate. at some distance (V,3~V2 nmi.) of the 

 margin of the segment, surpassed by 1 or mostly 2 sometimes 

 very long teeth or horns.
