V.—On Neuropteris plicata, Sternberg, and Neuropteris rectinervis, Kidston, n. sp.
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 July 2012
Extract
Neuropteris plicata was described by Sternberg in 1826, from a specimen from Mireschau, Bohemia, but the species seems to be very rare and imperfectly known. As other ferns have been identified as N. plicata in error, I give a figure of what I believe to be Sternberg's plant, an identification with which my friend M. Zeiller entirely agrees.
I also figure and describe a new species of Neuropteris, which is identical with that identified as N. plicata by Roehl, but from which species it is essentially distinct.
