Hymenophyllum secundum, Hook. & Grev. Ic. Fil. 1. 133 ; Hook. Spec. EL 1, p. 100. 



Hab. Good Success Bay, and Orange Harbour, Tierra del Fuego : 

 on trunks of trees, and mossy banks, among bushes. 



Our numerous specimens of this species are none of them nearly so 

 large as the figure in the Icones Filicum, with which in other respects 

 they perfectly agree. 



9. Htmenophtllum Neesii, Hook. 



Hymenophyllum Neesii, Hook. Spec. Fil. 1, p. 99. 

 Trichomanes Neesii, Blume, Enum. Plant. Jav. 2, p. 226. 



Hab. Mount Majaijai, Luzon, Philippine Islands. 



We cannot determine whether the present species ought to be re- 

 tained in Hymenopliyllum or be remanded to Trichomanes, owing to 

 the mutilated condition of the few specimens we have to examine, and 

 therefore follow Sir William Hooker, who refers it to the present 

 genus. The few indusia on our specimens are oblong, and divided 

 for one-third of their length into two somewhat acute and dentate 

 valves ; the receptacle extends as far as the tips of the valves, but 

 not beyond them.
