(2) Sori circular distinct ; spore cases concrete in a single annular series. —KAULFUSSINEZE. 
| KAULFUSSIA. Blume Enum, Fil. Jav. 260. 
(Macrostoma Hooker M. S. Aspidii Sp. auct.) 
Gen. char. Sori dorsal, non-indusiate, sessile, globose, fleshy-coriaceous, concavo-hemispherical, crenate, consisting of 10-20 
spore cases arranged in a single sessile concrete series ; the spore cases bursting on the inner face, by a vertical oblong or linear-obovate 
cleft or slit. Receptacles globose compital. Veins prominent pinnate ; venules anastomosing in hexagonal areoles, sori ferous on the 
points of confluence, the ultimate areoles containing free clavate veinlets. و‎ 
Fronds coarse ternate, the under surface furnishes copiously with cavities which are probably secretory organs. Rhizome 
thick ? decumbent. (Moore.) i 
KAULFUSSIA ASSAMICA. (Griff) fronds 3-foliate, leaflets sessile, stipes terete, spore cases about 20, only opening on the 
inner face about half their length. 2 
The figure is taken from Hooker's journ : of Bot. ii. 375 and shows no fre®veinlets in the areoles which is probably a mistake 
as is my specimens of K : cesculifolia Bl: an allied species from Java they are always present. 
Hab. Upper Assam.
