By Willard N. Clute. 

 {Continued.) 



Trichomanes Sm. 



1 8. T. sfihenoides Kze. Found growing in little mats on wet 



rocks above Moore Town. A very small and irregularly 

 cut species. (263). 



19. T. Krausii Hook. & Grev. Abundant on trees and rocks 



above Moore Town, forming dense patches. (271). 



20. T. membranaceum L. On wet rocks, Cuna Cuna Pass, 



not common. The fronds of this species are generally 

 semi-circular in outline. (294). 



21. T. muscoides Sw. On trunks at Moore Town. Appa- 



rently not common. (281). 



22. T. crispumla. Most abundant at high altitudes, growing 



on the forest floor. One of the largest Jamaican species. 

 Collected at John Crow Peak and Morce's Gap. (47). 



23. T. lucens Sw. New Haven Gap, on trunks. This has 



considerable resemblance to T. crinitum, and, being 

 confused with it, but one specimen was collected. (119). 



24. T. crinitum. Sw. One of the handsomest of the Jamaican 



filmy ferns. It grows in circular tufts at the base of 

 trees. Morce's Gap, not very common. Fronds light 

 yellow-green, pellucid. (53). 



25. T. alatum Sw. New Haven Gap. This also much re- 



sembles ci' in it um. (76). 



26. T. trichoidenm Sw. An interesting species found in the 



forests of tree ferns, where it grows on the trunks of 

 Cyathea fiubescens, and is seldom found elsewhere. 

 The final divisions of the fronds are not wider than pencil 

 marks. Morce's Gap and elsewhere. Common. (52). 



27. T. scandens L. Climbing on trees by means of the run- 



ning rootstock. Moore Town. Easily mistaken for T. 

 radicans. (74). 



28. T. radicans Sw. Common at nearly all altitudes, climb- 



ing over trunks and rocks. (59).
