ticulated; the venules forming unequal areoles, &om which 

 proceed free included simple or braohiate recurrent veinlets, 



J^onds simple, membranaceous. Bhizome creeping. — The 

 peculiarity of this genus is the production of different kinds of 

 sori on the same frond, a feature which has led M. VSe to 

 suggest that it may be an abnormal state of Fleopeltis teimilorU, 

 which it otherwise closely resembles.

Sori non-indusiate, oblong, distinct, parallel with the costa ; 

 the receptacles linear-oblong, immersed, sub-marginal. Veins 

 immersed uniform ; venules anastomosing in elongated sub- 

 hexagonal areoles, from which proceed variously directed free 

 included veinlets. 



IVonds simple, coriaceous. Ehizome creeping. — Though usu- 

 ally placed among the JPoh/podiece, the constantly elongated sori 

 parallel with the costa, indicate rather an affinity with the 

 TcenitidecB ; and we gladly reviye for it the name Faragrcmma, 

 formerly applied to it by Blume, by whom these species were 

 considered to form a distinct section of Chwnmdtis.

Sori non-indusiate, linear, continuous; the receptacles sub- 

 marginal, superficial, formed of the marginal parts of the arcuate 

 veins. Veins simple, from a central costa, each arching and 

 uniting with the next vein, so as to form a series of oblique
