THE FERN BULLETIN 



ill 



Athyrium filix-foemina (L.). The range of this 

 species seems to include the entire State but it ap- 

 pears to be abundantly only locally. Recorded from 

 Allen, Crawford, DeKalb, Kosciusko, Vermillion and 

 Wells (Deam), Brown ( Ind. Univ. Herb.), Lake 

 (Clute), Floyd, Monroe and Lawrence. Deam re- 

 ports var. angustatum from Wells; var. fissidens 

 from Noble and var. ovatum Roth, from Wells and 

 Blackford. 



Camptosorus rhizophyllus (L.). Common in that 

 part of the State in which outcrops of limestone oc- 

 cur, i. e. the southern. 



Phegopteris polypodioides Fee. One of the rarest 

 species in the State. Reported only from Putnam by 

 Underwood. 



Phegopteris hexagonoptera (Michx.). Commonly 

 reported form the southern part of the State and less 

 commonly from the northern, but doubtless occurs 

 throughout the State in favorable situations. 



Phegopteris dryopteris. Fee. There is but a single 

 record of this species in the State. It is reported 

 from Allen County by Sanford. 



Nephrodium noveboracense (L.). Apparently not 

 very abundant. Recorded from Clark, Kosciusko, 

 Jennings. Noble, Steuben, and Wells (Dram), 

 Floyd, Lawrence and Monroe. 



Nephrodium thelypteris (L.). With one excep- 

 tion, that of Vigo ( Blatchlcy) , this species seems to 

 be confined to the northern part of the State. In 

 Kosciusko County it is the most abundant species 

 and is probably equally abundant in the other nor- 

 thern counties. 



Nephrodium cristatum (L.). Reported only from a 

 few northern counties. DeKalb and Porter 

 (Deam)-, Marshall (Nat. Herb,), and Kosciusko 

 (rare) .
