Oss.—This genus is founded on a solitary Fern, which 
differs from all free-veined Aspidec in its fronds being cor- 
date, sub.entire, or more or less lobed, and of a thick, 
coriaceous, firm texture, and obscure veins; its peculiar 
habit induced me to characterise it as a distinct genus, 
under the name of Pachyderis, but which is superseded by 
the earlier one of Fée, It may be considered as holding a 
position intermediate between Polystichum and Lastrea.
