ATHYRIUM FILIX-FCEMINA, var. CLARISSIMA (Jones) 
R. Moule. North Devon. 1868. 
Under glass by Captain Jones. It has been thought desirable 
to print another frond of this variety to show the development of 
which it is capable. 
Though barren it produces an infinity of 
abortive spore cases.* 
* N.B.—It was upon this fern that the phenomenon of “ароѕрогу” was 
first discovered by the author (wide “ Life History of Ferns ").
