‘668 JOURNAL, BOMBAY NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY, Vol, XIII, 
In his list of the ferns of the Punjab, printed for private circulation, 
Mr. ‘Trotter wrote :—‘* it has been collected at ‘The Glen’ near Simla by 
De. Watt, Dr. Cattell and myself,” but Mr, Blanford did not admit this; and 
Mr. Trotter did not include A. tenwifolium in a manuscript list he subsequently 
sent me ; so I suppose the plants were only A. varians, which is quite different 
in cutting. Beddome’s figure accurately represents the Dehra Dun plant. 
Sub-genus AtHyrium, Roth. 
[A. Hohenackerianum, Kze., was given .by Dr, Cattell in his “ Handy 
Guide to the known Ferns of the Himalaya”, Lahore, 1877, as 
having being found at the Chadwick Falls, Simla, andthe entry was 
repeated in Mr, Trotter's privately printed Jist. Mr. Levinge, in a letter 
to Mr. Baker, preserved in the Kew Herbarium, said—“ No, 54 ” (Trot- 
-ter’s pamphlet). “I do not believe that A, Hohenackerianum, Kze., was 
ever found in the Punjab. What Dr. Cattell got at the Chadwick Falls, 
Simla, (also alluded to by Blanford) was most likely Aspl. drepanophyllum, 
as I got the latter at Naini Tal in the N.-W. Himalaya’. I agree with 
“Mr, Levinge’s belief; but not in the suggestion as to what Dr. Catiell’s 
» Plant was, for there is no evidence to support it. |
