* ©. Christensen is doubtful about the position of this fern, and refers it to Dryopteris?, 
but there seems to ug.no douht that it can only be referred to the genus Dryopteris in the 
new system. ‘The specific name “‘aspidioides” is already pre-occupied by an American 
species of Dryopteris, therefore we are compelled to alter the name if we wish to place it 
in the right position in the system. 
‘t The varieties of“P. actiléatum do not appear to be well marked, but as both Diels 
and Christensen regard them as distinct species we mention them at least as varieties, in 
order,to draw-.attention to these forms and invite investigation.
