FrerRN Fiora or ALABAMA 77 
DRYOPTERIS MOLLIS (Jacq.) Hieron. This fern was 
reported to me by Mr. Dukes, as growing near a creek 
which runs down Fern Way in West Mobile, between 
Spring Hill Road, and Dauphin St. When I examined 
the place I found the creek had been cleaned up and 
concreted, so that destroyed the station. I had hunted 
diligently hoping to find it elsewhere, but it was not until 
I was about ready to leave Alabama in October, 1919, 
that my search was rewarded. Just north of the Elec- 
tric Car Barn on Spring Hill Road by the roadside in a 
ravine I found a large colony of that fern. It very 
closely resembles D. normalis, but one can see the 
difference by examining the veining of the pinnae. 
CYSTOPTERIS BULBIFERA (L.) Bernh. Mountain re- 
gion on wet limestone rocks. Jackson, Colbert, Lauder- 
dale, and Etowah Counties. Not plentiful. 
CyYsTOPTERIS FRAGILIS (L.) Bernh. Mountain region 
to lower hills. In rich woods and rocky places. Fre- 
quently met with in rich ravines. 
ONOCLEA sENSIBILIS L. Throughout the State in 
damp places. Mohr says it is found from lower hills 
to Coast plain, but I have found several good colonies 
on Sand Mt. in Jackson Co. Mohr reports it from 
Baldwin Co. Mr. Dukes told me of finding it at the 
foot of Spring Hill in a swamp, but I could never find 
the station. 
Woops1a ostusa (Spreng.) Torr. Found through- 
out the northern part of the State on rocks, both lime- 
stone and sandstone. I have found it in Jackson, De- 
Kalb and Hale Counties. In Hale Co. I found it as 
far south as Greensborough, the County-Seat. It was 
reported that Prof. R. 8. Cocks found it at Selma, in 
Dallas Co. Selma is perhaps twenty miles south of 
Greensborough, making it the station farthest south 
for the State. Mohr gives it from Winston Co. Dr. 
Smith reports it from Bibb and Tuscaloosa Counties.
