Attexuatum, WoUaston, MS. (Fig. 10.) — Fronds large; 

 lobes narrow and very much attenuated; distant and alternate; 

 slender and thin in substance. Sori bold. A distinct and hand- 

 some variety, forwarded to me by Mr. Wollaston, of Chisselhurst, 

 a gentleman who has done more than anyone else to bring into 

 notice the varieties of British Ferns, and one who deserves 

 the warmest thanks of all Fern cidtivators. 



BiFiDO-LOBATUM. (Fig. 11.)— Found in Somerset, by IVfr. 

 Elworthy. A small variety, with the general appearance of 

 Bifidum, and bearing a rounded lobule or auricle on the 

 anterior base of each of the lower lobes.
