Habitat : In Jav& occidentali, declivia borealia montis ignivomi Gede, 8000-9000 ped. supra mare édita,
inhabitans, ubi frequentissimum in jugis, quæ massis basalticis conformata, inquilinis Goenoeng Batoe (saxeus
mons) vocantur, cum mulLis aliis cryptophytis rupes quam maxime steriles vegetationi uberiori præparare
videtur. Etiam inter plantas, quas Kühl et van Hasselt montibus Karang Java, altitudine 5ooo ped., lege-
runt, specimen hujus plante paullo minus, marginibus revolutis stipiteque frondis fertilis nigro-maculato
hospitatur. A latifolio Sw. perquam affine, fronde sterili conformi, solum aliquantulo minore (in isto ovato-
lanceolatä) differt, prouti ab A . longifolio Jacq. fronde fertili minime spirali revolutä, imo constanter planä,
et ab A . simplice Sw. fronde marginatâ discrepat.
