8-23-29 Aspidium cristatum Sw.G. 42 = Dryopteris
Gray B. P. I 19. Sterile v fertile fronds. Rd shortly east of Highlands Cabin. See Clute 139. Fronds thick,
coriaceous, veiny v darker v more bluish green than Osmunda cinnamonea growing near by.
8-23-29 Aspidium
Sp. By pool above bridge Highlands Bk. 3 pinnatifid v
indusia v raelis glandular. Hence would seem
to be A. spinulosum var intermedium but general
aspect unlike the form often found in woods
around Forest Plain and suggestive of Asplenium
Flix femina in yellowish green color, pinnae
narrow, less deeply cut than var. intermedium,
curved backward. Only the lower pinnae notice-
ably spinulose toothed. This has been frequently
collected v puzzled over before (e.g. 8-6-29 near land-
ing to old houses at mouth of Trout Bk but
not recorded in notes). If not a form of var.
intermedium, the only possibility seems A.
Bottii. But see Clute 142. It does not suggest
A. cristatum v this somewhat like it. Is
definitely 2-pinnate (3-pinnatifid) almost
to the very tip.
