1850. Lectotype (designated here): Martinique,
Kohaut, Herbarium Sieber, Fl. Mart. suppl. 23
(US!-00691121).
Habitat: rare terrestrial scrambling fern. The species
was collected in Mamelle Pigeon (GUAD!) and
Mamelle de Petit Bourg (Vivant, 1996), but is not
present at these localities any more; however, Vivant
(1996) mentions to have located specimens near
Chute du Gallion on the lower flanks of the Citerne
mountain. I have not found this species there. This
endemic species of the Lesser Antilles is endangered
in its entire range.

LONCHITIDACEAE
Note: The genus Lonchitis was placed tentatively in
Lindsaeaceae by Smith et al. (2006), but the genus

(e.g. different root anatomy and introrse indusia that
