Schizaea robnsta Baker, Syn. Fil. Ed. 2, 429. 1874.'
The first specimens of this plant were collected at an eleva-
tion of perhaps 2500 feet, on Konahuanui, Oahu, on a little
level spot in clay formation. The plants were small and
stunted. It was also found on the opposite side of Nuuanu val-
ley, on the slope of Waiolani, at the Vame elevation. Near the»
Wahiawa bog on Kauai, large and beautiful specimens were
obtained. Diligent search in situations favorable tq its growth,
I would probably prove it to be much less rare than it is sup-
posed to be, as it is a plant easily passed by.
