Jhis species is said to liave the segments entire and tiie surfaces iiai<ed. 

 The spécimens, liowever, occurring in the Buitenzorg Herbarium, hâve the 

 fertile segments often, though not invariably, more or less distinctly repandulo- 

 crenulate and it seems that the young fronds hâve the iinder surface often 

 covered vvith woolly liairs or squamules {H. lanuginosa V. A. V. R., this 

 Bull., Il, 1920, 155).

 the fronds of the young. though fructiferous plants short-stalked, of the old 

 plants long-stalked.

Distinct enough when typical spécimens are shown but passing into 

 H. vestita MoORE by intermediates so gradually that it is very difficult 

 to draw the précise line of démarcation. H. botrychioides BRACK. and 

 other species belong probably to thèse intermediates. — See aiso RaciborsKI's 

 information under Davallia vestita Bl. in Flor. Btz., I, 127. 



Humata squarrosa V. A. V. R., this Bull. II (1920), 156. 



The original spécimen of this is not to my disposai since it belongs 

 to a private collection, so that I can not make comparisons with plants recently 

 received from Sumatra (Dell, Ba n dar- bar oe, in forest, ait. 850 m., 

 J. A. LôRZiNG No. 6897, 13 October 1919). — Thèse plants hâve the rhizome 

 scales not very finely acuminate, not conspicuously squarrose, the stipes 

 15—25 cm. long, the fronds lanceolate- to deltoid-ovate, 20 — 40 cm. long, 

 10—20 cm. broad, with the largest ultimate (tertiary) segments oblong, to 

 + 6 nnn. long by 2'/^, mm. broad, finely crenulate to serrulate, and the 

 sori often surpassed by an acute, horn-shaped toothlet.
