Distribution. — A strictly American genus of approximately 20 species
occupying rupestral or (rarely) terrestrial habitats from near sea level to an elevation
of 4200 m in the Andes. Ranging from Missouri, Wyoming, and California to
Chile (including the Juan Fernandez Islands), Argentina and the highlands of
southeastern Brazil. There is a large geographic gap between the North and South
American elements of the genus (only A. incana is found in Central America
and the West Indies), with the greatest diversity of species occurring in the
highlands of central and northern Mexico.

Cystopteris fragilis (L.) Bernh. “Brittle Bladderfern”
The fern was first described by Linnaeus (1753) as Polypodium fragile from habitats described as the cooler hills of Europe.
Cystopteris was proposed by Bernhardi in 1805, who placed C. fragilis therein.
This was done in German which, I confess, I have not tried to translate.

Woodsia Cathcartiana, n. sp.
W. scopulinae affnis et simillima, sed
minute glanduloso-puberula nee hispidula; frondibus 2-3 dm. altis
obscure viridibus firmiusculis lanceolatis 25-55 mm. latis bipinnatifidis;
pinnis oblongis, inferioribus distantibus, lobis sinubus modice latis
separatis oblongis denticulatis; soris submarginalibus ; indusio obscuro
eo W. scopulinae simile.
—
W. scopulina D. C. Eaton apud Gray,
Man. ed. 6, 691 (1890), non D. C. Eaton, Can. Nat. ii. 90 (1865).
—
Nearly related and very similar to W. scopulina, but minutely
glandular-puberulent, not hispidulous; fronds 2-3 dm. high, dull green,
rather firm in texture, lanceolate, 25-55 mm. wide, bipinnatifid;
pinnae oblong, the lower distant; lobes oblong, denticulate, separated
by rather wide sinuses; sori snbmarginal; indusium obscure, similar
to that of W. scopulina.

Taylor's Falls of the St. Croix River, Minnesota, 1874, Miss Ellen Cathcart (type, in hb. Gray);
also on rocks, Lower Falls of the Menomine River, Michigan, 31 August, 1892,
C. F. Wheeler. This species was sent to Dr. Gray soon after its original
collection. It was referred by him to Prof. Eaton, who evidently was
somewhat puzzled by it. He reported it as belonging to his W.
scopulina remarking, however, upon its peculiar glandular puberulence.
Much additional material of the real W. scopulina, a species
frequent from the Rocky Mountains westward, is now at hand and
the constancy of the distinctions pointed out above is such as to warrant
the publication of the plant of Minnesota and Michigan as a separate species.

Literature Cited:
- Presl, Karl B., 1845.

Carl Presl (1845, ser. 5, part 3, p. 580) barely noted the presenence of a new species of Azolla.
Some sources give the page number as 150.
Others note that the publication on p. 580 is as isonym.
I did note see anything on page 150 that looked like publication of a name in Azolla

A new species of Azolla is:
Azolla mexicana;
fronds pinnate,
subrotund overlapping leaflets smooth colored

Lives in Mexico, where it is described by Schiede.
It seems related to A. portoricensis;
the edge of the leaves are not hyaline.
