SPICILIGIUM FILICUM PHILIPPINENSIUM. 187 
Mindanao, Province of Zamboanga, San Ramon ( Copeland s. n.) March, 1905, 
alt. 200 to 650 m. 
All the other species of Christensenia (Kaulfussia) known to me have the 
lateral pinna; rather strongly petioled. DeVriese and Harting have indicated in 
their Monograph of the Marattiaceae 14, that the Kaulfussia found by Cuming 
in the Philippines, which was considerably smaller than the other known forms, 
might perhaps prove to be a distinct species. In comparison with specimens from 
Assam, leg. King ; Selangor, leg. Ridley ; Java, leg. RdciborsJci, and Sumatra, 
leg. Schneider, the specimens from Mindanao are very reduced. The fertile 
frond is often simple and when it is tripartite the lobes are joined at the base, 
not petiolate, and very unequal, whitish beneath. 
BOTRYCH I U M Sw. 
107. Botrychium lanuginosum Wall., var. nanum n. var. 
Luzon, Province of Benguet, Bugias (1848 Copeland ) October, 1905, alt. 1,550 
m., with the large form. 
Like our European Botrychium this large species has also a dwarfed form, 
about 17 cm. high, the’fertile frond with its stipe about 10 cm. high. 
SUPPLEMENT. 
There are two forms hitherto confounded as Aspidium coadunatum Wall, or 
even as A. cicutarium Sw., which is a very different West Indian species. After 
a careful examination and comparison with other specimens of the Malayan and 
wider Asiatic area, I can indicate the following diagnostic points:
