pinnce being sub-tripartite, acute, with rounded crenate lobes. 



Stipes and rachis thin, and pale green in colour. 



Fronds terminal, attached to a somewhat creeping rhizoma. 



Length of frond two or three inches; colour pale green. 



Sori small, indusium covered with hairs, eventually confluent 

 and reddish. 



A very delicate little species. 



I have not been able to procure a plant hitherto; for fronds 

 I am indebted to Dr. Hooker. 



It is only to be found in the Catalogues of Mr. R. Sim, of 

 Foot's Cray, and Mr. Parker, of the Paradise Nursery, 

 HoUoway. 



The illustration is from a frond forwarded by Dr. Hooker.
