586 MR EOBERT KIDSTON ON 



belongs to the Grosveaor Museum, Chester, and Mr W. Hemingway has forwarded me 

 a few small specimens from Yorkshire. The only example of Sphenopteris dilatata, 

 from the South Wales Coal Field, of which I know, is that figured in the Geol. Survey 

 Memoir (I.e.) as Sphenopteris Honinghausii. 



From the examination of these various specimens, I believe that the Sphenopteris 

 dilatata, L. and H., is a good species.
