Trichonianes meifolium Bory, in Willd. Sp. PL 5:508. 1810. 



At 4000 feet above Waimea, Kauai, there was an abundance 

 of this fern, growing on perpendicular rocks along the stream, 

 just below Gay & Robinson's Kaholuamano house. However, 

 very few good specimens could be found, as nearly all of the 

 fronds were withered.

MARATTIACEAE. 

 MARATTIA Smith, Mem. Acad. Turin. 5:419. 1793. 



Marattia douglasii Baker, Syn. Fil. Ed. 2, 441. 1874. 



This is a plant of high elevations, at least on Kauai and Oahu. 

 On Kauai, it was collected at 4000 feet, along the stream near 

 Gay &■ Robinson's Kaholuamano house, above Waimea On 

 Oahu. it was seen only near the summit of Konahuanui. It 

 seems to occur only in places where there is a great deal of 

 moisture, and may be found at much lower elevations on the 

 windward sides of the islands.
