E.ETROFLEXUM, Wollastoti. (Fig. 98.) — Found by the late 

 Mr. C. Jackson, of Bai'nstaple, Devonshire, somewhere in that 

 neighbourhood. The plant is erect in habit. The fronds are 

 long, narrow, and bipinnate. The pinnaj normal in outline, 

 distant; many bent backward, so as to clasp the stem behind, 

 as a man would stand with his hands behind him. Pinnules 

 small, distant, and entire. My thanks are due to Mr. Swynfen 

 Jervis, of Darlaston Hall, Staffordshire, for fronds. 



Variegato-pr^morsum, Wollaston. — Fovmd by Mr. G. B. 

 Wollaston, of Chiselhurst, near Littlehampton, in Sussex. 

 Fronds bipinnate, ovate-lanceolate, and irregular in outline. 

 Pinnae various, both in length and development, often wanting, 

 truncate, or depauperate. Pinnules coarse, biserrate, spiny 

 toothed, very irregular, and prsemorse. Variegated in spring. 

 This is another variety which does not require an illustration 

 for recognition.
