240 M. J. M. CHRISTENHUSZ
LINN prior to 1756 (Jackson, 1912). A plate in
Plumier (1705) was treated as lectotype by Proctor
(1985), but the Schelpe choice is the earliest explicit
lectotypification of this species (Jarvis, 2007).
Habitat: rare in margins of mangrove swamps, sometimes
cultivated (Domaine de Valombreuse; M. J. M.
Christenhusz, pers. observ.).
Localities: GRAND TERRE: Pointe-à-Pitre (Vivant,
1987b), MARIE GALANTE (Vivant, 1990).
96. Acrostichum danaeifolium Langsd. & Fisch., Pl.
Voy. Russes Monde [Ic. Fil.] 1: 5, tab. 1. 1810. Type:
Brazil, Santa Catarina Island, Krusenstern s.n., ex

Habitat: locally common fern of swamps, coastal mangroves
and wet roadsides.
Localities: GRAND TERRE: Gosier (M. J. M. Christenhusz,
pers. observ.), Pointe-à-Pitre (Vivant, 1987b).
LA DÉSIRADE, MARIE GALANTE (Proctor, 1977).
97. Adiantopsis radiata (L.) Fée, Mém. Fam. Foug. 5:
145. 1852.

(designated by Lellinger, 1972a): Jamaica, Sloane

1252.1 was not present in the Linnaean herbarium
before 1755 (Jackson, 1912).
Habitat: terrestrial fern on stony ground in thickets,
on paths and in dry forests.
Material examined: BASSE TERRE: Houëlmont,
Christenhusz 4033 (P, TUR).
[Adiantum caudatum L., Mant. Pl. Altera 308. 1771.
Lectotype (designated here): ‘Habitat in India orientali’,
Anon. (LINN 1252.6!).
Habitat: cultivated fern from East Asia (Fournet &
Hoff, 1999), perhaps naturalizing.]
98. Adiantum concinnum Humb. & Bonpl. ex Willd.,
Sp. Pl. 5: 451. 1810. Lectotype (designated by
Tryon 1964b): Venezuela, Cumana, Humboldt &

fragment).
Material examined: BASSE TERRE: Cascade aux
Écrevisses (M. J. M. Christenhusz, pers. observ.)
99. Adiantum fragile Sw., Prodr. 135. 1788.

100. Adiantum latifolium Lam., Encycl. 1: 43. 1783.
Neotype (designated by Proctor, 1977): Guadeloupe,
Proctor 20110 (A, isoneotype US). No specimen
exists in the Lamarck herbarium and cited illustrations
are other species. Proctor (1977) designated
the neotype to pertain to the traditional
application of the name.
Habitat: common terrestrial fern on banks, thickets,
pasture borders, in moist shade, often on slightly
disturbed soil. The species is also cultivated as a
garden plant and may naturalize.
Material examined: BASSE TERRE: Cascade aux
Écrevisses (Vivant, 1987b; M. J. M. Christenhusz,
pers. observ.); Domaine de Valombreuse (M. J. M.
Christenhusz, pers. observ.).
