Fillet or Ribbon N Hooker and Baker's " Synopsis Filicum" Tcenitis (which derives its name from tainia, a fillet or ribbon, in allusion to the linear leaflets) forms a parjt of the tribe Grammitidece, as Genus 57. It comprises only six known interesting species, all of which require stove treatment. Their sori (spore masses) are linear, but the line of fructification, either central or sub-marginal, though usually uniform, is sometimes interrupted. Some of the species scarcely differ fi'om Tceniopsis (included under Vittaria) in fruit, but in all of them the veins intercross each other. Culture. The plants comprised in this genus require a soil of a peaty nature (two parts peat to one of loam), a moist atmosphere, and abundant shading. They are generally propagated by the division of the crowns. Species and Varieties. T. angustifolia—an-gus-tif-ol'-i-a (narrow-leaved), R. Brown. This species, native of Cuba and North Brazil, has simple (undivided) fronds Iffc. to IJft. long, Jin. to ^in. broad, very gradually narrowed to a.
