ASPLENIUM MAKINUM. 
47 
Two slight varities of this Fern have been noticed, 
One has the leaflets much narrower, and more pointed 
so as to have a spear-head form, and has been named 
Asplenium marinum var. acutum. The other variety 
was mistaken by Mr. Hudson for the Adiantum tra- 
yeziforme of Linnams, and was called by him Asple- 
nium trapeziforme, but it is only A. marinum with 
leaflets more deeply toothed and jagged, than ordinary. 
It was sent from Scotland by Dr. Alston to Mr. P. 
Collinson, and was subsequently found in that country 
m coves of the seashore near Wemyss, by Mr. Lightfoot,
