TRSCHOMANES Linnaeus 
TRICHOMANES BROOKSII sp. nov. 
Gonocormus; rhizomate filiforme late repente nigro, pilis cas- 
taneis minutissimis vestito; stipite 5 ad 20 mm alto, filiforme, 
erecto, fere nigro, nudo vel sparsissime pubescente, baud alato; 
fronde usque ad 4 cm alta et 25 mm lata, pseudotripinnatifida, 
rhachi alata; segmentis infimis fere oppositis ca. 2 cm longis 
maximis, adscendentibus, parte mediale sympodiale, pseudo- 
pinnatifida vel -bipinnatifida ; segmentis ultimis obtusis vel acutis, 
univerviis, venulis falsis carentibus; indusio profunde campan- 
ulato, late alato indeque in apice segmenti dilatati immerso, ore 
patente vix bilabiate, receptaculo exserto. 
Sarawak, Mount Bongo, Brooks and Hewitt, 1908. 
By the description, this appears to be near to Trichomanes Hosei Baker, 
of Mount Matang, which, however, seems to be typically pinnate in plan, 
with much more narrowly winged and rather two-lipped involucres. Above 
the forking of the veins of Trichomanes Brooksii, they are connected for 
a notable distance by the lamina, which thus becomes conspicuously widened 
at these points.

tata, primo sparse pilosa, mox glabrescente, olivacea, fusces-
