The form is probably a sport but as such it seems to deserve 
a name as it is likely to occur elsewhere. Therefore, I propose 
the name: 
Adiantum pedatum L. var. laciniatum Hopkins var. nov. 
Pinnules linear, lanceolate, or oblanceolate, more or less 
branched; growing with the type; rocky wooded hillsides, 
Wayne County, O. (Fig. 1). 
Fig. 2. Cystopteris fragilis eristata Hopkins, a, b, c, Apexes of frond. 
d, e, f, Pinnae. 
In the latter part of August, 1909, in company with Mr. 
R. J. Webb, of Garrettsville, and Mr. A. N. Rood, of Phalanx, 
I visited Woodworth’s Glenn, in Portage County. 
A clear rapid flowing stream very suggestive of trout has cut 
out a small ravine through the sub-carboniferous (?) sandstone. 
In some places this ravine is quite narrow and the Avails almost 
perpendicular.
