found in tlie counties of Carnarvon, Denbigh, Glamorgan, 
Merioneth, and Pembroke. It has never been found in 
Scotland, and in Ireland only in the neighbourhood of Cork.

Sark. 
Culture. — Especial care should be exercised with the 
object of keeping this Fern well drained under cultivation. 
This remark indeed applies to all the Spleenworts. In a pot, 
or under glass — either in a small case or in the greenhouse — 
Asplenium lanceolatum will thrive. It loves moisture, 
warmth, and shade, and a soil consisting of leaf-mould and 
light sandy loam, with small pieces of soft red brick or sand- 
stone mixed with the compost.
