PTERIS AQUILINA 



F'g- 2 S7- P- a 'J- trispa-cristata Dritcry. 



Crispa crist ata Druery (Fig. 257). — This splendid variety 

 was found near Pitlochry by the writer, in the shape of a single 

 frond about three feet high, and as much across, and evidently 

 risen from a well-established plant, yet no other could be found. 

 As it was barren, this frond, as shown in our figure (Fig. 257), 

 constitutes the only record. 



Cristata Green (Figs. 258, 261 top centre). — Found at Fay- 

 gate, Sussex by Mr. C. B. Green, as covering a large area (see 

 Fig. 262). 



Glomerata. — A great curiosity, all the tips curl up tightly 

 into ball-like knots ; found in Westmoreland, where the finder 

 described it as resembling bunches of grapes hanging down the slope.
