 base, the lower side entire, provided with 2—4 ciliae at the auriculate- 

 cordate base ; of the branches growing gradually smaller ; of the ultimate 

 branchlets contiguous or somewhat imbricate, the largest 1 — I'/i mm. 

 long, rather blunt, the upper side sparingly serrulate and ciliolate in the 

 lower half only, rotundate-cuneate at the base, the lower side mostly 

 without ciliae at the rotundate-truncate base; intermedial leaves erect; 

 of the main rachis rather contiguous, subovate, the largest about 2'/j 

 •cm. long, acute or acuminate, keeled, minutely (not copiously) serrulate, 

 the inner base narrowed, the outer base produced, auriculate-cordate, the 

 auricle rounded, provided with 2—4 ciUae; of the branches growing 

 gradually smaller ; of the branchlets imbricate, bluntish or acute, sparingly 

 serrulate or even nearly entire, the outer base subcordate or rounded, 

 non-ciliate. Spikes sohtary and terminal on the branchlets, square, to 

 about 1 7j cm long, 1— 1 '/j mm. (when adult to 2 mm.) diam. ; sporophylla 

 isomorphous, ovate, acute, keeled, minutely serrulate, to 1 mm. long,

 yellow-brown or yellowish-white, indistinctly rugulose, the rumples 



crowded; microspores
