oblong, 45 mm. long, obliquely rotundate-cuneate to rotundate-truncate 

 at the base ; of the secondary rachises more approximate, somewhat falcate ; 

 of the ultimate branchlets nearly close, somewhat more obliquely cuneate 

 at the base, the largest leaves 24 mm. long, subacuminate ; intermedia! 

 leaves to V s as long, entire, erect; of the main rachis remote, triangular- 

 oblong, acute, truncate-subcordate at the base; of the secondary rachises 

 lanceolate-falcate-oblong, acuminate, obliquely rotundate-subcordate at the 

 base; of the branchlets more close, cuspidate, still more oblique at the 

 base. Spikes 612 mm. long, r/ 2 2 mm. diam.; sporophylla ovate, 

 acuminate, entire, keeled; macrospores brown or yellowish, with shortly

(198) S. Lohbli, Moore, Bk., Fern All., 90. 



Shoots erect or ascending, reaching a length of 90 120 cm., the 

 lower part simple, 5-stelical, stramineous, pubescent with short, thick, 

 spreading, more or less deciduous, fibril-like hairs and provided with 

 scattered, adpressed, uniform leaves, the upper part branched, oblong in 

 outline, the main rachis hairy like the stipe, with approximate or remote, 

 dimorphous leaves; pinnae ascending, regular, linear-lanceolate, to 25 cm. 

 long; pinnulae crowded, numerous, regular, linear, erecto-patent, the largest 

 4 6 cm. long, simple, or the lower forked. Leaves of the lower plane 

 contiguous, lanceolate-falcate, 3 6 mm. long, the largest 1V mm. broad, 

 bluntish, entire, the upper base rounded, not imbricated over the rachis, the 

 lower base broadly adnate, subauriculate ; leaves of the upper plane Va as 

 long, ovate, acuminate to cuspidate, entire, rotundate-cuneate at the base. 

 Spikes square, 6 25 mm. long, 3 mm. diam.; sporophylla ovate, acuminate, 

 keeled, entire, ascending, 2 mm. long; macrospores brownish or white- 

 glaucous, coarsely verrucose to rugose, the projections often elongated, 

 curved, flexuose or reticulate; microspores whitish, with a high, mem- 

 branous, ring-like equatorial crest, and free or connected, membranous 

 crests on the basal side. Specimens occurring in the Buitenzorg Her- 

 barium have the shoots 4050 cm. long, springing from a sarmentose 

 and probably divaricating-scandent, 5-stelical main stem, articulated at 

 the base.
