Nanum, frondibus longe stipitatis trifoliolatis, foliolis sessilibus 
lanceolatis integerrimis vel grosse serratis undique distincte 
birsutis pilis diaphanis, involucris albidis marginibus suber- 
osis approximate subimbricatis.

Asplenium tridactylites, Bartl. in Herb. Kze. and Bolle in 
Herb. Hook, (sterile fronds, simple, three lobed). 
Hab. Clefts of Dolomitic rocks, at an elevation of from 4- 
6000 feet, on the south and north-west side of the Schleern- 
geberg, in South Tyrol, Seelos, C. Bolle. 
This is perhaps the rarest of all European Ferns, confined 
to a very limited locality in South Tyrol. The affinity is 
evidently with small specimens of Aspl. septentrionale or Aspl. 
Germanicum, and hence the plant would be an Acropteris 
of Link. The only specimens I possess were obligingly sent 
to me by Dr. Bolle ; they were accompanied with the locality 
“ pres de Salum, au pied du Mont Geier, dans les fentes des 
rochers calcaires, Tyrol meridionale.”
