Pinnse lanceolate and pinnatifid, base auriculate both aboveand below. Veins forked. Sori large, uniserial, medial, and from ten to fourteen pairson each pinna. Length from six to seven inches; colour dull green. A curious dwarf species, strikingly distinct, and easily recog-nised by its basal segments. VOL. II. R 120 POLYPODIUM HAST-^EFOLIUM. The Fern has been very aptly named hastsefolium. It appears to^be a delicate species, and somewhat difficult tomanage. The fronds are thick in consistency, and the veins veryapparent. For a frond of Polypodium hastcefolium my thanks are dueto Mr. J. Smith, Curator of the Koyal Gardens, Kevv. It is not in any of the Nurserymens lists. The illustration is from Mr. Smiths frond.
