1 to 6 cm. long and the lower pinnae partly gradually diminished in size 

 but not reduced to mère auricles.

Lomagramma pteroides, J. Sm., in Journ. of Bot., 111, 402; 

 V. A. V. R., Mal. Ferns & Ail, Supplem. I, 438 ; L. lomarioides. /. Sm, var., 

 C. Chr., Ind. Fil., Supplem., 118 (with référence to Leptochilus lomarioides, 

 81., C. Chr., Ind. Fil., 386). 



According to the spécimens of this species and its varieties recieved 

 from the Philippines and Copeland's information in Leafl., Il, 393, the 

 diegnoses given by me should be modified : 



Like L. lomarioides /. Sm. but the barren pinnae entire or crenate, 

 at best more conspicuously dentate-crenate towards the apex ; sori on a 

 rather broad, marginal réceptacle, appareiitly occupying the whole under 

 side of the fertile segments in the narrowest forms. 



Forma typica : Barren pinnae membranaceo-herbaceous, when dry pale- 

 olive-green, to 7'/2— 10 cm. long, l'A — l'/j cm. broad, the higher rather 

 rotundate-cuneate, the lower cordate at the base; fertile pinnae narrowly 

 linear, for the most part stalked and dilated at the base. — Philippines. 



Var. negrosensis (Copel., 1. c.) : Like the type but the barren 

 pinnae broader, 2'/4— 2'/2 cm. broad, the higher obliquely rounded or 

 rotundate-cuneate, the lower rounded or rotundate-truncate at the base ; 

 fertile pinnae much contracted, sessile, narrowly linear.- Philippines, 



Var. subcoriacea (Copel., 1. c.) : Like the type but the barren 

 pinnae firmer, subcoriaceo-herbaceous, when dry above dark-fuscous with 

 a reddish tint, beneath olivaceous-brown, 12'/2 — 15 cm. long; fertile pinnae 

 uch contracted.— Philippines.
