A New Form of Polypody. — In the Maine Woods 

 for March, 1908, H. W. Jewell describes a new form 

 of the common polypody as Poly podium vulgare f. 

 elongata. A blue-print of the form shows it to consist 

 of five or six pairs of pinnae, longest at the base and 

 rapidly diminishing upward ending in a long terminal 

 segment that is deeply lobed below to meet the pinnae. 

 The whole fern is not more than five inches in height 

 and was collected in a rock crevice. The scanty moisture 

 in such a situation is doubtless responsible for the form 

 of the plant, which in most respects, corresponds to 

 young phases of the ordinary species. Since there have 

 already been named six different elongatunis in Poly- 

 podium this fern would doubtless need a new name if 

 distinct enough to merit one, but the describer should 

 select some other place of publication than a news- 

 paper, and get his adjectives to agree with his nouns.
