the edge entire or crenate; several lower pinnae gradually becoming smaller, 

 the lowest very small. Rachis brown, rigid, furfuraceous or pubescent; both 

 surfaces naked, green; main veins Avith 5 — 6 veins on each side. Sori semi- 

 globose, occupying the whole under surface of the fertile piiniae.

 Herald, 428; Dryopleris granulosa, C. Chr., Ind. Fil; — var. lobata, Pr., I.e. 



Stipes 10 — IS c.M. long, clothed like the rachis with a rather rigid, 

 reflexed, dense pubescence, 3-sulcate above, convex below, the base often + 

 naked. Fronds broadly ovate, 5 — 8 d.M. Jong, pinnate. Pinnae alternate, 

 sessile, linear-oblong, narrowed into a long, entire point, the margin obtusely 

 and irregularly dentate, the base cordate, the lower base auriculate, the upper 

 sometimes so; lower pinnae rarely opposite, inclined to become lanceolate, 

 horizontal or deflexed with an upcurved acumen, the medial ones the longest, 

 7 — 10 c.M. long, I'/j — 2 c.M. broad, horizontal, the highest confluent, 

 the terminal one long, broad, unequally and coarsely toothed. Texture mem- 

 branaceous; colour deep-green; upper surface naked, lower covered with 

 green tubercles or granules and therefore rough; costae pubescent; veins up- 

 curved. Sori nearly round, small, in 2 rows between the main veins. 



Var. lobata: Highest lateral pinnae with the acumen abbreviate, 

 with the higher teeth elongate and the apex 4 — 7-fid, the lobes linear-lan- 

 ceolate, apiculate, the medial lobe the longest. Terminal pinna not mo- 

 dified.
