DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES NOT FIGURED. 
, 
: LINDSÆA PECTINATA. (Blume.) Rhizome stout, wide-creeping, scandent, paleaceous ; stipe erect, very short; 
Frond 12-18 inches long, 1-2 inches broad, simply pinnate; pinne 3-2 inch long, + inch deep, the lower line nearly straight, the upper 
margin round, slightly crenate, the point not very blunt, close together, but not imbricated ; texture pellucido-herbaceous ; sori in an 
interrupted line along the upper edge. Hk. Sp. i. p. 287. L, oblongifolia, Reinw. Hk. Sp. i. p. 206 t. 61 D, ;— Syn. Fil. p. 106. 
Hab. Assam and Malayan Peninsula and Islands. —Habit of Lindsæa repens. L. Calomelanos, Kunze, from Java, is said 
to be closely allied. . x | 
| NIPHOBOLUS FLOCCIGERUS. (Mett,) Rhizome wide-creeping, the scales squarrose, lanceolate-acuminate, bright 
ferruginous ; stipe very short ; fronds 6-12 inches long, }-4 inch broad, narrowed gradually to both ends, the édge entire ; texture 
rigid, coriaceous ; upper surface naked, lower densely matted with subferruginous tomentum ; veins hidden ; sort immersed amongst 
the tomentum, covering the whole upper part of the frond. Hook. Sp, v. p. 45. Antrophyum niphoboloides, Hk, Sp. v. p. 94 ;—Syn- 
Fil. p.351, - | 
Hab. Northern India, Philippines, Malacca.—Most like ۷ porosus, but the frond much narrower and texture more rigid. 
SELLIGUEA CAUDIFORMIS. (Hook.) Rhizome woody, creeping, the scales large, pale-brown, lanceolate ; stipe 6-9 
inches long, firm, erect, glossy, pale-brown ; frond 6-9 inches long, ovate-oblong acuminate, the sterile ones 3-4, the fertile ones 1-2 
inches broad ; texture coriaceous, both sides naked ; main veins distinct to the edge, the veinlets obscure ; sori in one continuous or . 
interrupted row between the main veins. Hook. Sp. v. p. 158 ;—Bot. Mag, t. 5828 ;—Syn. Fil. 389. 
Hab. Mergui, Moulmein, and Malayan and Polynesian Isles to Tahiti and New Caledonia. 
PÆCILOPTERIS BLUMEANA, (Hook.) Rhizome woody, wide scandent ; stipe of barren frond 6 inches long, deciduously 
| séaly ; barren frond 1-3 feet long, 1 foot or more broad, with numerous sessile penne on each side, which are 4-6 inches long, 1 inch 
broad, the apex acuminate, the edge slightly toothed, the base rounded ; texture membranous ; rachis and midrib beneath slightly 
scaly, areolæ hexagonal, without free veinlets ; fertile frond with distant pinnæ 4-8 inches long, 4-4 inch broad.—ß. Samoense ; stipe 
` of barren frond 1 foot long, the central pinne 24 inches long, 4 inch broad, more distinctly toothed. Hook. Sp, v. 2.268 ;—Syn. Fil. 
E p. 423. : : 7 | 
Hab. Assam; Java, Philippines, and Samoa.—Lomagramme pleroides, J. Sm. Hk. Gen. Fil. t. 97 (Luzon, Cuming), is 
4 apparently an abnormal form of this, with the sori in a line along the edge of pinnæ rather narrower than the usual barren ones. A. 
Requienianum, Gaud., should not unlikely also be referred here. | 
ELAPHOGLOSSUM NORRISIL (Hook.) Caudex stout, woody, the scales long, linear, dull-brown ; barren frond sessile, 
or nearly so, tufted, 12-18 inches long 3-1 inch broad, the point blunt, the lower half narrowed very gradually ; texture coriaceous ; 
both sides nearly naked ; veins immersed, indistinct ; fertile frond much narrower than the other. Hook. Sp. v. p. 215 ;—Syn. Fil. p. 401. 
Hab. Penang, (Str W. Norris), Mactier.—Not unlikely identical with the Javan A. melanostictum, Blume. It is like flacci- 
dum in the shape of the barren frond, but the texture is that of conforme and latifolium, and the fertile frond also is subsessile,
