The manuscript was prepared last summer, under the immediate inspection of Professor Ives of Yale College.
Σελίδα 119 - PTERIS, or brake, capsules form ing lines on the edge of the leaf. Some ferns bear their fruit in a peculiar appendage, as a spike or protuberance in the axils, or at the base of the leaves ; no appear ance of flowers in these plants is ever presented.
