Abstract

Prof. Ewart has recently pointed out (Proc. R, S. Vict.
Oct, 1911) that the fern which has been familiar to us as
H. Wilsoni, Hook, or H. unilaterale, Willd, will be more
correctly named if we call it H. peltatum, Desv.
This little fern is very widely dispersed in Tasmania. It
and H. tunbridgense, L., are the only two members of the
genus with serrated leaves which are natives of Tasmania.
