In concluding the natural history of the P olypodmm family,
th e re will be a number of species found figured which are
new to our British cultivators; they are, however, so beautiful,
and in most instances so distinct, that it has been desirable
to figure them at once, instead of reserving them for the
supplementary volume.
F o r fronds of P . colpodes I am indebted to Air. J . Smith,
Curator of the Eoyal Gardens, Kew, and to Alessrs. Booth,
of Hamburg.
This species may he p rocured of Alessrs. Booth, of Hamburg.
