A little stream, scarcely more than a ditch, divided an open, sunny meadow (rom a bit of evergreen wood, and on the steep banks of this runlet srrcw the briofht fronds of Woodzvardia augustifolia, i^iving at first glance somewhat the im})ression of 0)io- clca scusibilis. The fronds of both arede- scribed as pinnatifid, and in this Wood- zvardia we find the divisions minutely toothed (<?), giving them a rough outline which is wanting in Ouoclea scusibilis. These are the sterile fronds. Among them and taller than they arc the fertile fronds with very narrow divisions, covered on the versed side with the chains of fruit-dots (b). 102. y.
