SUPPLEMENT. 44 



(30a) C. sinops, Rac, Flor. Btz., I, 36; (not C. oinops, Hassk.). 



Trunk to about 12 m. high. Stipes to 50 cm. long, prodived with 

 caducous scales. Fronds elliptical-oblong, 3-pinnatifid or sub-3-pinnate, the 

 rachises pale-fuscous, beneath sparingly punctulate and when young 

 probably ferrugineo-furfuraceous, above striguloso-tomentose, the tomentum 

 castaneous. Largest pinnae rather horizontal, elongate-lanceolate, about 

 60 cm. long by 25 cm. broad, on stalks to 3 cm. long, rather abruptly 

 acuminate. Pinnulae approximate, horizontal, sessile, linear, deeply 

 pinnatipartite, or pinnate at the base, subabruptly acuminate, the largest 

 10 — 12 ','2 cm. long, 2—2',; cm. broad, the acumen coarsely rotundate- 

 crenate, blunt at the tip; costae above castaneo-striguloso-tomentose, 

 beneath ferrugineo-furfuraceous in the lower part, sparingly squamulose 

 in the upper part, as are the costulae in the lower part, the scales thin, 

 ochraceous, ovate, flexuose-acuminate. Ultimate segments (lobes or leaflets) 

 approximate, the lower rather horizontal and straight, the others rather 

 spreading and more or less falcate, the largest to 1 '/, cm. long by 3 mm. 

 broad, somewhat canaliculate above, blunt, broadly and shallowly crenate, 

 the crenatures hardly recurved in the fertile region, the upper surface 

 provided with rows of transversal impressions alternate with the crenatures, 

 so as to form 1 row of minute vaults on each side of the costula except 

 in the sterile region, 1 to each crenature, convex above, concave beneath ; 

 costulae naked above; veins on the vaults, to 10 — 12 on a side, somewhat 

 prominent above, the lower and central once or twice forked, the higher 

 simple. Texture coriaceous; surfaces naked. Sori to 8 on a side, not 

 occupying the higher veins, close, costular; indusium thin, ochraceous, 

 gradually evanishing. — The name C. sinops, though a typographical 

 error, can be maintained, since Raciborski's plant is absolutely different 

 from that of Hasskarl.

P. 45; 13. JungiiuliiiSiftsia. — Omit the variety dissoZitto, it being a 



form of the species only, not a 

 constant variety. 

 P. 46, 1. 4; Omit the loord approximate, 



1. 11; For: higher — Read: the higher 

 1. 13 — 14 should be modified: 



Lobes approximate or remote, to 5 mm. apart, not rarely narrowed 

 in the fertile region.
