Kegarding this species there is some différence in conception. 

 According to Cesati's description and drawing quoted above (and 

 there is for the time being no reason to believe that tliey are 

 incorrect) Teysmann's plant froni Karimata (of which Beccari 

 makes mention in Malesia, 11. 244-245 and on which my 

 description of this -species is based especially to the shape and 

 position of tlie soral lobulesi is quite another species (L. daval- 

 lioides r. A. v. h'.) while this is a plant nearly allied with L. 

 Curtisii Bk. — The lower stei'ile segments of L. deparioides are 

 slightly sinuated to coarsely toothed, the soral lobules are erecto- 

 patent (protruded beyond the margin of the segments, pseudo- 

 deparioid), oval, twisted and, according to the drawing, not 

 laterally compressed ; the stérile- segments of L. davallioides are 

 entire, and the soral lobules retroflexed (turned luu-k on the 

 iipper surface of the segments), twisted and laterally compressed 

 (pseudo davallioid).
