(3) S. Raciborskii, C. Chr., Ind. Fil. ; *S. Smithii, v. A. v. R. 

 Pinnae plurijugate in the adult plants; veins about 1 mm. apart. 



(4) S. paliisti'is, Bedd.} Onoclea scandens, Sw., Schk., Krypt. 

 G-ew., I, tab. 106—107. 



(4a) S. areolaris, Copei. 



A plant gathered in Neiv Guinea by Versteeg, determined by Christ 

 as S. palustris Bedd., is probably a form of this; it has the pinnae 

 provided with 2 marginal glands at the base, one on each side. 



(5) S. sorbifolia, J. Sm. 



Omit this, as being no Malayan species. 



(5a) S. leptocarpa, Und., in Bull. Tor. CI., XXXIII, 47 ; S. sor- 

 bifolia, J. Sjn., var. spectabilis, v. A. v. K, Mal. Ferns, 720 — 121; Aero- 

 stichum spectabile, Bac, Flor. Btz., I, 54; Lomaria spectabilis, Kze, inBot. 

 Zeit., 1848, 14; Lomariopsis leptocarpa, Fee, Mem., II, 69, tab. XXIX. 



Rhizome high-climbing, stout, angled by the decurrent bases of the 

 stipes, provided with lanceolate, more or less eroso-fimbriate, dark-dirty- 

 brown scales especially at the extremity. Stipes scattered, firm, about 

 10 — 30 cm. long, sUghtly scaly. Barren fronds 30 — 100 cm. long, 30—60 

 cm. broad, pinnate, the rachis often narrowly winged towards the apes. 

 Pinnae distant, shortly petiolate, articulate to the rachis, about 6 — 30 on 

 a side, .linear-lanceolate, 20 — 30 cm. long, 1','4 — 2 cm. broad, the apex 

 gradually acuminate or subcaudate, the edge entire, often irrugularly and 

 narrowly recurved and then apparently repando-crenate, the base cuneate- 

 angustate. Texture rather coriaceous; surfaces naked; colour when dry 

 dark-olive-green, when fresh often purplish; veins spreading, I'/j — 2 mm. 

 apart, simple or forked, connected by a marginal strand. Fertile fronds 

 with the pinnae narrowly linear, as long as in the barren fronds, about 

 2 — 3 mm. broad. 



(56) S. Sininiii, Und., in Bull. Torr. CI., XXXHI, 50; Lomariop- 

 sis Smithii, Fee, Mem., II, 71, tab XXXIII, fig. 2g.
