* In Phlegopteris and Goniophlebium the youngest available fronds should be 
examined. Many have been transferred to Lastraea and others may follow. Only 
proliferim is now retained by Beddome, who finds occasional involucrate fronds 
of all others. For similar reason Dictvopteris is transferred by him to Aspidium, 
so that all the Ercmobryoid series are changing.
