Athyrium mesosorum Makino nom. now 



Asplenium mesosorum Makino Contrib. Stud. F3. Jap. III. in Bot. 

 Mag., Tokyo, XII. 1898, p. 88, et Plant. Jap. nov. v. min. cogn. in 1. c. 

 XII. p. 120. 



Since my former observation, I have noticed the Athyroid sori on a 

 plant in the Botapic Garden of the Science College, Imperial University 

 Tokyo, and therefore I have now referred that species to the present genus.. 

 The Athyroid sori are not numerous among the common straight ones, and 

 its appearance is also not frequent ; hence this species will often be referred 

 to Euasplenium of Asplenium, but erroneously. There are also occasionally 

 double sori having a Diplazioid form.

NOTE, — In an article " The Annual Meeting of the Tokyo Botanical Society " in the 

 May number of The Botanical Magazine, the following short sketch of Mr. Inui's 

 paper " Alcoholic Fermentation without Yeast-cells " which was read after Mr. Shira- 

 sawa's was by an unfortunate oversight not given, and should be inserted there in 

 page 70: 



Mr. T. Inui in his paper on the " Alcoholic Fermentation without Yeast-cells," gave 

 a historical sketch of the subject and added the result of his own experiment which 

 is not yet completed. He succeeded to crush the yeast-cells with repeated freezing and 

 crushing.
