Asplenium Novje-Caledoni^e. 
Fronde rachiformi deltoidea glaberrima 3-4-pinnata, rachibus 
pinnulisque linearibus subcoriaceis uninerviis, soris angusto- 
linearibus elongatis solitariis (qualibet pinnula) ad margi- 
nem dehiscentibus, stipite elongate inferne terete.

Caledonia, C. Moore , Esq. 
A very distinct species of Asplenium, which will assuredly 
rank in habit and structure with the Darea group, which 
is usually acknowledged to be inseparable, generically, from 
true Asplenium . 
The present species is remarkable in the length and narrow- 
ness of the segments of the frond. Of the ultimate segments 
nearly the whole of one side of the costa is often occupied by 
the sorus: so that the species cannot well be confounded 
with any other of the genus.
