Gardening. 508 DRTNARIA DRYOPTEEIS DBYNARIA (Greek, oak-like). Polypodi&cece. A genus of 10 or more East Indian ferns, with round naked sori, allied to Polypodiam, but with a fine net-work of veins, with free Included veinlets, and with either a separate oak-like leaf or with the lower portion of the spur-hearing leaf deeply pinnatifid like an oak leaf. D. quercifdlia, with two sorts of Its., the spore-bearing 2-3 ft. long, is the commonest species. D. rigidula, Sw. {D. diversifdlia, R. Br.), a similar but larger species from the same region, also appeared at one time in the American trade, but the species are seldom seen in cultivation in this country. D. muscefdlia is occa- sionally seen in fine collections, where it is grown for its striking, simple foliage, which reminds one of the Bird's Nest Fern (Thamnopteris). It is really a Polypodium, which see for description. L. M. Undekwood. DRT6PTEBIS (Greek, oak-fern). Polypodictcece. Wood Fern. A widely distributed genus of handsome ⢠ferns with dissected foliage and bearing round sori â covered with heart-shaped or reniform indusia, which are fixed at the center or along the sinus. The Veins are either wholly free or the lowest united. A consider- able number of our common wood ferns belong to this genus. The species have been variously known under the names Lastrea, Aspidium, and Nephrodium, Other species sometimes referred to under this genus may be found under Polystiohum. For D. acrosUchoides, see Polystichum ; for D. decurrens, see Sagenia. In North America, known mostly as Aspidiums. For culture, see Ferns. Not the same as Doryopteris. A. Veins entirely free. B.
