134 GYMNOGRAMME, § EUGYMNOGRAMME. 



Hab. Columbia, Merida, Moritz, n. 96. — This has even more the aspect of 

 Jamesonia than the G. elongata, which Fee also refers to that genus, but it is a 

 true Gymnoyramme. 



18. G. (Eugymnogramme) i«ma, Mart, and Lind. ; caudex 

 creeping paleaceous with blackish subulate scales, stipites 

 5-6 inches long ebeneous-black glossy as well as the rachis 

 which is copiously hispid, fronds 4-6 inches long 1-2^ inches 

 wide firm membranaceous scarcely coriaceous sparingly pilose 

 on both sides oblongo-lanceolate pinnated, pinnse approximate 

 subopposite sessile horizontally patent from a slightly broader 

 base oblong obtuse rather deeply pinnatifid, segments sub- 

 obovate or broad cuneate very obtuse entire or subincised at 

 the apex, lowest ones a little larger and subauriculiform, ul- 

 timate pinnae very small and confluent entire or emarginate, 

 veins forked, sori short of few capsules short-oblong. — Mart, 

 and Lind. Kze.in Schk. Fil. Suppl. '\\.p. 78. /. 1.32. 



Hab. Maraginta, Kew Granada, alt. 8000 feet, Linden, n. 1044, in Herh.nostr. 



19. G. (Eugymnogramme) myriopJiylJa, Sw. ; caudex?, 

 whole plant piloso-glandulose, stipites a span and more long 

 and as well as the rachis bright red-brown glossy, fronds 

 1-1 i foot long 2-6 inches wide oblongo-lanceolate acuminate 

 bi-subtripinnate, primary pinnae patent petiolate 2-3 inches 

 long oblongo-lanceolate, secondary ones \ an inch long 1^-2 

 lines wide sessile oblong obtuse deeply pinnatifid (scarcely 

 again pinnate), segments very small pinnatifid with 5-9 deep 

 teeth or segments which are entire or the lower ones bifid, 

 veins forked corresponding with the divisions of the pinnules, 

 sori copious oblong. — Siv. in Kongl. Vet. Acad. Handl. 1817. 

 G. spectabilis, Kl. in Herb. Hook. 



Hab. Brazil, Freyreis (Sw.J, Sellow (from Klotzsch), Gardner, n. 102 and 5922. 

 — This is a species of peculiar aspect. I have seen no authentic specimen of 

 Swartz's G. myriophyllum from Brazil ; but my specimens from Sellow and Gard- 

 ner I have reason to believe are the same plant. 



20. G. (Eugymnogramme) flabellata, Hook. ; caudex ? 

 (probably as in G. cheilanthoides and elongata), stipites 3-4 

 inches long purple-ebeneous glossy, fronds firm-niembrana- 

 ceous finely hirsute (as well as the dark-purple and espe- 

 cially the young apices of the frond) 14-2 inches wide 

 elongate oblongo-lanceolate acuminate attenuated at the base 

 throughout bipinnate, primary pinnee 1-2 inches long erecto- 

 patent petioled oblongo-acuminate, secondary pinnae (or pin- 

 nules) 3-4 lines long cordato-flabelliform decurrent upon a
