to those of the stem, smaller, cuspidate-acuminate, rotundate-cuneate on 

 the inner side at the base, with the cusp Va Vs as long as the blade. 

 Spikes square, to TA cm. long, IVa mm. diam. ; sporophylla ascending, 

 ovate-oblong, acute or acuminate, minutely denticulate, keeled ; macrospores 

 white or pale-yellow, 12 in a macrosporangium, irregularly rugulose 

 with short or elongated, flexuose, branched or reticulated ridges, the 

 apex flattened, without radiating ribs, encircled by a crown-shaped ring; 

 microspores probably wanting. In order to avoid confusion the name 

 S. Grabowskyi Warb. is maintained, though I acknowledge that the 

 name S. intermedia Hieron. has a legitimate claim on priority.

Near S. Grabowskyi Warb. Shoots to 30 cm. long; stem or main 

 rachis 6 9 mm. broad including the lateral leaves; pinnulae simple, 

 forked or pinnate; ultimate branchlets 4 6 mm. broad; lateral leaves 

 proportionally longer, more distinctly pellucid-margined on the upper side, 

 less conspicuously spuriously veined, the upper edge denticulate throughout 

 or less so in the upper part, the lower edge entire, or obsoletely den- 

 ticulate towards the apex; intermedial leaves longer cuspidate, more or 

 less denticulate on both sides, the cusp % 4 / s as long as the blade or 

 longer. 



Forma typica: Relatively small plants; lateral leaves of the main 

 stem less falcate than those of the branchlets, often bluntish. Sumatra. 



War. subbinervia: Middle-sized plants; lateral leaves of the main 

 stem more falcate and acute, similar to those of the branchlets. Java.

Shoots 50 cm. or more long, the lower part simple, brownish, 

 compressed, to 3 mm. thick, the upper part 2-pinnate, ovate in outline; 

 main rachis 12 mm. broad including the lateral leaves; branchlets 3 4 

 mm. broad. Leaves heteromorphous ; lateral leaves of the stipe suberect, 

 oblique-ovate, unequal-sided, shortly acuminate, with the upper side
