130 TRICHUMANES. 



45. T. Javanicum, Bl.; roots long coarse descending wiry 

 fibres, fronds tufted lanceolate rigid (black when dry) pin- 

 nated, pinn;e subpetiolate oblong obliquely cuneate at the 

 base obtuse at the apex inciso-subpinnatifid chiefly at the up- 

 per margin, involucres in the sinuses of the upper segments 

 of the pinna; generally solitary urceolate partially sunk, the 

 mouth entire not 2-lipped, stipes and slightly marginal rachis 

 setose.— Bliwie, En. Fil. Jav. p. 224. Hook, et Grev. Ic. Fil.

 Philippine Islands, Cuming, n. 184 and 1G9. Oualan, D'Urville. — Few 

 species are better marked or more easily recognized than the present. It 

 is of a harsh and rigid texture, 8 or 10 inches to a foot high, including the 

 stipes. Pinnae an inch or more long, more or less incised, sometimes sub- 

 auriculate near the upper base. Veins close, parallel, stout. Whole plant 

 black in drying. — T.fuscum, Bl. (our next species) seems nearly allied to 

 this, but the midrib of the pinnae is described as paleaceo-hirsute on both 

 sides, and the rachis and stipes as clothed with ferruginous hairs. 



46. T. fuscvm, Bl. ; " frond pinnated lanceolate diapha- 

 nous, pinnae alternate subsessile (upper ones adnate) oval ob- 

 tuse truncated at the base lobato-pinnatifid paleaceo-hirsute 

 on each side the costa, lobes incised, rachis margined above 

 and as well as the nearly terete stipes ferrugineo-hirsute."

47. T. crispum, L. ; fronds generally tufted from a short 

 stout creeping caudex but sometimes distant on a long creep- 

 ing one erect somewhat pilose or clothed with long copious 

 ferruginous hairs lanceolate pinnate, pinnae horizontal ob- 

 long obtuse obsciuely toothed upper ones coadunate, invo- 

 lucres several from the apices of the pinna) urceolato-cylin- 

 drical spreading at the mouth with two diverging \\\is, stipes 

 more or less hairy. — Li7in. Sp. PI. p. 1560. Stv. FL Ind. Occ.
