Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Nature-Printed British Ferns, Vol. 2 of 2: Being Figures and Descriptions of the Species and Varieties of Ferns Found in the United Kingdom; Athyrium to Ophioglossum, Genus Vi.-XIX
Tm: interest attaching to the subject of British Ferns seems to be increasing, if we may judge from the varied communications with which we are favoured. Our present and concluding volume, though swelled beyond its assigned limit, and including a lengthened Addenda, fails to keep pace with the subject, several interesting forms, and various particulars respecting the distribution both of the species and their varieties, having reached us since the last pages have been printed. We may particularly mention a beautiful form of Lady Fern found in Cornwall, which we propose to name, after its discoverer, Bullet-ice and many particulars respecting the dis tribution of the Ferns in Ireland, communicated by Dr. Kinshan, and Mr. F. J. Foot. The additional information thus accumulating.
