Amer.—The large Californian form with Lvs. 2-3 ft. long is possibly a distinct species The European plant was early called Struthiopteris spicant by Scopoli, by which name it is now cited as the earliest generic name. Hardy; needs deepest shade Lomaria nipponica, Kunze, Japan, usually larger than preceding, is much like it in other respects and probably is better to be considered as a form of B. spicant rather than as a distinct species.
