Text Appearing Before Image:
hors. A RARE Fern, scarcely to be seen in collections, althoughwell known to most Botanists. An evergreen stove species. Native of the West Indies, the American Meridian, Martinica,and Monserrat. 118 POLYPODIUM DECUSSATUM. Fronds large, beneath subpubescent and bipinnatifid. Stembrown at the base of the frond. Fronds sessile, elongate, andprofoundly pinnatifid; segments linear-lanceolate and obtuse. Sori in lines, eventually confluent, uniserial, minute, and fromten to twelve pairs on each segment. Pinnse opposite or sub-opposite and hirsute, apex acuminate. Veins simple and semi-transparent. The substance of the frond is thin, and densely but minutelypubescent. A singularly delicate-looking species, the sori being veryminute. It has not yet spread into our English collections, exceptingthe magnificent one of the Royal Gardens, Kew. For a frond I am indebted to Mr. J. Smith, Curator of theRoyal Gardens, Kew. It is not in any Nurserymans list. The illustration is from Mr. Smiths frond.
