ONYCHIUM AURATUM.
The fronds, which are sub-memhranaceous, are ovatc-lanceolate,
acuminate, glossy, very compound, the primary and secondary
divisions pinnated. Segments linear, and all pointing upwards,
the fertile ones elongated.
Pinna; opposite below, and alternate above. Stipes rounded
on the under side, and fluted above.
Sori linear-elongated, covering the hack of the fertile segments.
Involucres golden.
Veins simple.
F o r a plant I am indebted to Mr. James Veitch, of the
Exotic Nursery, Chelsea; and for fronds to M. Schott, of the
Imperial Gardens, Schonbriinn, and to Mr. K. Sim, of Fo o t’s
Cray.
