Lindsaea bouillodii is a confused taxon as regards to its identity, nomenclature and distribution as given by various workers in the past. The report of its occurrence in Madras Presidency by Beddome (1865, 1883). has been substantiated by its recent collection from Tamil Nadu. It is attempted to clarify the matter by providing key to the taxa confused with it, detailed description and illustrations. Three new recrods of species i.e, L. glandulifera V.A.V.R. and L. malayensis Holtt, for India and L. chienii Ching for Burma are reported. Detailed descriptions and illustrations are provided to facilitate identification.

Abstract


Lindsaea bouillodii is a confused taxon as regards to its identity, nomenclature and distribution as given by various workers in the past. The report of its occurrence in Madras Presidency by Beddome (1865, 1883). has been substantiated by its recent collection from Tamil Nadu. It is attempted to clarify the matter by providing key to the taxa confused with it, detailed description and illustrations. Three new recrods of species i.e, L. glandulifera V.A.V.R. and L. malayensis Holtt, for India and L. chienii Ching for Burma are reported. Detailed descriptions and illustrations are provided to facilitate identification.
