85. Cyathea andersoni (Scott) Copel. ( Alsopliila andersoni Scott: Bedd. 
Ferns. Brit. Ind. (1869) 310).

with raised points, tawny-villous above; pinnge oblong-lanceolate, 45 to 60 
cm long; pinnules lanceolate-ligulate, 10 to 15 cm long, about 2 cm wide, 
subsessile, cut nearly or quite to the costa, costa bristly, especially beneath, 
not scaly; segments close, 3 to 4 mm wide, lanceolate, bluntish, toothed, 
green on both sides, texture thin but firm; veinlets 9 to 12 on a side, 
forked; sori infra-medial, minute, exindusiate.

86. Cyathea kingii (Clarke) Copel. (Alsophila kingii Clarke in Bedd. Hand- 
book, Addenda) . 
Trunk 3 m high; main rachis purplish, shining, glabrous, rachises of 
pinnae purplish, glabrous, and somewhat glaucous; pinnae 45 to 60 cm 
long; pinnules about 7 cm long, 12 mm wide, coriaceous, of a bluish- 
glaucous tint, the costa very scaly beneath and hairy above, pinnules cut 
nearly to the costa into oblong, erenate segments; costules much raised 
and very prominent (particularly in the fertile pinnules) and scaly; 
veinlets once forked a little above the base, or more rarely simple; 
receptacle very prominent, indusium wanting. Baker puts this species 
near C. latelrosa, and says A. Baheri Zeiller is probably a synonym.
