178. Diplazium apollinaris l’Herm. ex Fée, Mém.
Fam. Foug. 11: 40, tab. 10, fig. 1. 1866. Lectotype
(designated here): Guadeloupe, Matouba, Germain

but that collection was unfortunately destroyed
during WO-II.
Habitat: rare species of wet glades in rainforests at
mid to higher elevation.
Localities: the species is only known from Guadeloupe
and Martinique. Proctor (1977) wrote that the species
was not recently collected, but in 1992, Vivant (1996)
INDEX PTERIDOPHYTORUM GUADALUPENSIUM 253
found the species on a slope of Morne Boudoute, south
of a swampy depression between Étang Madère and
Étang Roche, in a rarely visited forest.

Porto Rico & Virgin Is. 6: 441. 1926.

Type: Venezuela, Caracas, Bredemeyer s.n. (holotype
B-Willd. 19948).
Habitat: rare terrestrial fern. This species is cited by
Fournet & Hoff (1999), but no specimens from Guadeloupe

Gardens, Kew, originally from Venezuela, Wagener
s.n. (holotype K).
Habitat: rare terrestrial fern in wooded rocky hillsides
at mid elevations, but there are no specimens of
this species from Guadeloupe in P or RB, so this
record cannot be confirmed.
