86 POLYPODIUM LATIPES. 



Length of frond from twelve to twenty-four inches; colour 

 dull green. 



Introduced into the Royal Gardens, Kew^ by Messrs. Loddiges, 

 in 1841. 



My thanks are due to Mr. Thomas Moore, of the Botanic 

 Gardens, Chelsea, for plants and fronds of this Fern. 



In the Catalogues of Messrs. A. Henderson, of Pine-apple 

 Place; Stansfield, of Todmorden; and Kennedy, of Covent 

 Garden, but perhaps not the true species. 



The illustration is from a plant in my own collection.
