11. Polypodium (Phymatodes) multijugatum Copel. spec. nova. 
Rhizomate invisoy teste King inter gramina terrestre ; stipite 40 cm 
alto, 4 mm crasso, stramineo-castaneo, glabro; fronde ca. 60 cm alta, 25 
cm lata, pinnatifido-pinnata ; segmentis infimis liberis (i. e. pinnis) ad 
basin dilatatis, ad stipitem non decurrentibus, sequentibus ala angusta 
connexis, 10-15 mm latis, usque ad 15 cm longis, acuminatis, integris 
vel le viter sinuatis, cliartaceis, glabris; venis sat conspicuis, haud rectis, 
anastomosantibus, venulis occultis; soris plerumque utroque biseriatis, in 
areolis majoribus solitariis, superficialibus, 2-3 mm latis, globosis. 
No. 228, Goodenough Bay, altitude 900 m. 
A relative of P. Phymatodes, and conceivably identical with Christ’s variety 
multisectum. 
12. P. pteropus Bl. 
No. 276, Ambasi. 
Malaya, southern Asia. 
The fronds are small and simple, though fertile. It is possible that this is 
a small form of P. aquaticum Christ, described from German New Guinea. 
13. Polypodium papyraceum Copel. spec. nova. 
Rhizomate ignoto; stipite 15 cm alto, brunneo, glabro, prope laminam 
anguste alato; lamina 22 cm alta, 12 cm lata, vix ad costam pinnata; 
segmentis utroque latere 7, adscendentibus, majoribns 11 cm longis, 8 
mm latis, inferioribus utrinque angustatis, basibns dilatatis et ala angusta 
connexis, integris vel snbsinnatis, glabris, papyraceis; venis rectis vel 
conspicuis carentibus ; apud costulam serie una areolarum angustarum 
plerumque longarum, trans cujus areolam quamque areolis duabus majo- 
ribus, inter qnas soro solitarip fere super ficiale globoso parvo; venulis 
inclusis liberis saepius hamatis. 
No. 115, in lowlands. 
This species presents the form of a slender P. ellipticum, but . in venation is 
comparable rather with P. nigrescens. P. Moseley i is much thicker, and has 
salient main veins. P. Billardieri is a large, coriaceous relative of P. Phymatodes. 
14. P. albicaulum Copel. spec. nova. 
Selliguea rhizomate albo-calcareo, paleis ejusdem sparsis, acicularibus, 
castaneis, 5 mm longis, squarrosis, basibus peltatis albomarginatis ; stipi- 
tibus tenuibus, frondibus sterilibus late lanceolatis, 10—15 cm longis, 
valde acuminatis, coriaceis ; frondibus fertilibus anguste lanceolatis, soris 
superficialibus. 
No. 32 7, Lakekamu (type) ; No. 263. 
Very like P. caudiforme Bl. in most respects, but easily distinguished by the 
clothing of the rhizome. 
15. P. sinuosum Wall. 
No. 27 0, Ambasi. 
Melanesia to Malacca.
