Text Appearing Before Image:
inifolium, figured in Vol. I, Plate XLI.—A. For a plant and fronds of this species my thanks are dueto Mr. Joseph Henderson, of Wentworth. It may be procured of Mr. R. Sim, of Foots Cray. The illustration is from a piece of rhizoma and frondsforwarded by Mr. Joseph Henderson. STRUTHIOPTERIS. 135 GENUS V. STRUTHIOPTERIS. Having fronds of two kinds, the barren ones large and boldand the fertile much smaller, with contracted resolute margins,forming as it were a universal indusium. Veins pinnate and free. Spore cases lateral; the base of the pedicels concrete, andproducing an elevated thickened receptacle. The habit of the genus exceedingly beautiful, and verydistinct. Most authorities consider that there are two species, onefrom Germany and the other a native of North America, yetthey are scarcely distinguishable; probably the geographicalseparation of the two plants has had more to do with placingthem as distinct species, thaa any specific difierence in the plantsthemselves. VOL. II.

Onoclea strutMopteris,Osmunda struthiopteris,Struthiopteris Pennsylvanica,Onoclea nodulosa, SWAETZ. SCHKUHE. HoOKEE. EoTH. LlNN^US. GUNN. WiLLDENOW. KUNZE. SmITH. MoOEE. ScHKUHE. Struthiopteris—Tlie Ostrich. Fern. Germanica—German. Struthiopteris Germanica is the king of the hardy Ferns;easily cultivated and rapidly propagated from its long creepingrhizoma, sometimes running beneath the surface of the groundfor seven or eight feet, and there throwing out its fronds, faraway from the parent plant. The symmetry in the habit of theplant, its large barren fronds placed in a single row aroundthe caudex, so as to produce a circle, whilst its fertile fronds,which are singular in form, rise up in the centre; these addedto its easy culture and perfect hardihood, must claim for it aplace in every out-door Fernery.
