The annexed figure (Tab. XXIX.) is taken from a fine drawing by Miss North, presented to the Society by the Bishop of Winchester. It represents as much of the plant as was possible, somewhat under the natural dimensions, nor could the full number of surrounding leaves be conveniently admitted.
Tab. XXX. exhibits one of the fronds of its full size. Fig. I. is an abortive drupa; 2. a ripe one; 3. a drupa cut longitudinally; 4. all the integuments of the fruit; 5. albumen; 6. cavity deftined to contain the embryo.
