LOMARIA DALGAIRNSI-ffl. 
A veiy line Fern of arborescent habit, possibly a form of L. Jiorynm {'Magellan iea) and having 
something the aspect of that arboreseent variety of this species which bears the name of L. vamioides. 
It has a blackish trunk, shaggy at Ihe apex ; subeoriaceous fromls and lanceolate acute pinna', dark 
green on the upper surface .and paler beneath. It has been intioduced from South Africa, and is a 
free-giowing vigorous plant in a greenhouse temperature, and therefore a valuable .acquisition. In the 
absence of fertile fronds, its glabrous surface and eonlluent upper pinme point to the plant published 
by Dr. Pappe under the name here .adopted. IJ and 2 guineas; a few very handsome plants at 3 
guineas each. 
LOMARIA DISCOLOR BIPINNATIFIDA. 
This beautiful Kern is certainly one of the most handsome of the Lomarias yet introduced. It is of 
symmetrical habit, its broad sterile fronds rise evenly from the crown, spread outwards in all direetions 
and arch in an exceedingly graceful manner. Their pinme are closely set, so that the parts overlaji 
each other, and are divided to the midrib, the segments being very much toothed and somewhat 
<‘ri.sped, which gives the fronds an elegantly fringed appearance. This was one of the twelve New 
Plants with which Mr. W. Bull gained the First Prize at the Provincial .Show of the Royal Ilorti- 
eultural Society, held at Preston in 1878. The specimens olfercd have been imported from Victoria, 
and are of v.arious sizes. Prices on application. 
LOMARIA GIBBA, fide page 113. | LOMARIA ZAMIAIFOLIA, 5s. and 7s. 6d. 
MICROLEPIA ANTHRISCIFOLIA. 
An elegant South African Fern of remarkably frec-growth, the creeping rhizomes throwing off an. 
abundance of (piadripinnatc fronds, which resemble those of Chcilant/tc.i clegan.t in their numcrotn+ 
and finely cut divisions, while their more ample size, velvety texture, and soft green colour, give a 
ilclightful effect to the whole plant. 3s. 6d.
