THE POLVSTICHUMS 



205 



Fig. 23 1. P. ang. linear 



L. proliferum (Fig. 231). — Found in N. Devon by Rev. C. 

 Padley ; our illustration gives a good idea of the Uneare section 

 generally, though on rather extreme lines. 



Manica-infantis. — Found by Moly ; so named, pinnules being 

 like a baby's glove ; really a conspicuilobe. 



Multifidum (Fig. 232). — Apex of frond divided into several, 

 and pinna tips also. 



Multilobum (Fig. 233). — This really constitutes a section of 

 prettily divided Ferns, for a description of which we refer to 

 Appendix, p. 417. 



Multilobum. — Found by Gray in S. Devon ; a fine tripinnate 

 form. 



M. ATTENUATUM, M. DECORUM, M. DENSUM, M. IONA, M. LAXUM, 



M. ovale, M. plumosum magnificum. — All these are fine tripinnate 

 forms on somewhat varied lines, as conveyed approximately by 

 their names ; besides Gray, we are indebted to Col. Jones and 

 Mr. Padley for independent finds, and to Mr. Birkenhead for the 

 last-named ; a very fine raised variety.
