INCISO-ACUTUM (Fig. 229).—Found in Lancashire loy Whe, А 
Stansfield ; a robust form, with long, falcate pinnules, deeply cut. 
INEQUALE VARIEGATUM.—Nearly normal in make, but distinctly 
speckled with pure white, the tissue being somewhat contracted 
when white, but not enough to disfigure the plant. 
I. v. POLYDACTYLUM.—A cross obtained by Col. Jones with a 
polydactylous form to which the variegation was exactly trans- 
mitted. 
Kitson# (Fig. 230).—Found at Torquay by Miss Annie Kitson ; 
a very distinct form, somewhat resembling a grandiceps, but with 
less-developed tassels. Pinnules very small and frond terminal 
much branched; its chief peculiarity is а tendency on the part 
of the pinnulets to form tassels. 
LATIFOLIUM.—Found by Mr. Moly in S. Devon; very fine, 
long lower pinnules. 
LATIFOLIO-GRANDICEPS.— Raised by Col. Jones; broad, heavily 
crested fronds. 
Laripes Parsons.—Fine foliose form. 
LAXO-CRISTATUM PRAEGER.—Found Castle Dobbs ; lax habit 
and crested. 
LINEARE (Plate XXX).—Found in Jersey by Mr. James and else- 
where by Moly, Tait, and Wells, but on varied lines ; the peculiarity 
of the section is the great tenuity of the subdivisions, which are 
more or less suppressed or reduced to rudiments at the centre of the 
frond; the terminal subdivisions are indistinctly separated or 
confluent ; very distinct.
