a new Genus of Ferns. ax 



This fpecies comes very near to the foregoing, but differs in 

 the frond being broader than it is long, and entirely without any 

 apex. The finus at the bafis of the frond is alfo more open than in 

 the foregoing. The ftipes is of a gloffy brown colour, as in the 

 firft. In both, the line of fru6tifications is at a diftance from the 

 margin.
