CoRNUTO-KAMOSUM, Loioc. (Fig. 5G3.) — A singular variety 

 found near the Clifton Suspension Bridge by Mr. Edwards, of 

 Nuthall, in 1865. Length of frond six inches. Two inches 

 above the base the rachis divides into two branches, and in 

 the centre of this forking is a cornute projection. The rachis 

 is flexuose, and the one branch is shorter and more slender 

 than the other, with much smaller pinnae, and a larger 

 decurrent ultimate pinna of half the size of the branch. The 

 pinnjc are lax two or three below the forking, naked imme- 

 diately above the forking, above which alternate to the apex. 

 The pinnoe vary in size and form, mostly very long and 

 narrow, and auriculate and serrated. Some are cuneate, and 

 a small portion depauperate. The ultimate pinna dilate and 

 bifid. My thanks are due to Mr. Edwards, of Nuthall, for 

 fronds.
