The northorn limit of this Fern is reached, according to Fries, in
Gothland, an island of the Baltic, the Scandinavian peninsula being
avoided ; but it occurs in some of the central provinces of European
Eussia, and thenoe through tho countries of central Europe, e.g.
Great Britain, Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, and Germany,
to Spain, Portugal, Italy, Dalmatia, Greece, and Turkey. In
Africa it is found in Algeria, and in the Atlantic Islands of Madeira,
and the Azores. In Asia it occurs, according to Ledebour, in the
Caucasus, on the Siberian side of the Ural Mountains, and in Tur-
comania ; and it is also found in Asia Minor, at Erzeroum, and in
Northern Persia. In the Hookerian coUeotion is a specimen douht-
fuUy labelled, from Kumaon. The species is indigenous to the
Northern United States, hut is there apparently rare. The Soolo-
pendrium Lindeni of Hooker from Mexico, seems to differ only in
its narrowed fronds, having the same strap-shaped outline, entire
margin, cordate base, and shaggy stipes and midrib, as in the common
European plant, of which it may perhaps be regarded as a
diminished variety. The Scolopendrium Hemionitis and sagittatum
