narrow, minute, and coadunate into a lobed point. The 
rachises are margined with a narrow wing. Of the fertile 
pinnules some have the flabellate dichotomous veins free, others 
anastomosing ; in the sterile ones I believe always free, with 
the apices of the veins clavate. Some authors who feel the 
poets of retaining the genus Jsoloma, would perhaps place 
ere.
