Re: cheilanthes

Doret,

I have two books with descriptions and illustrations of all the ferns on your list. The most recent is Southern African Ferns and Fern Allies by J. E. Burrows, 1990. Please contact me at my brcazagrps email address for more details.

Regards,

Brian Aikins

To all the ferny people around the world.

I got a list of cheilanthes species that can be found in Namibia. The only
problem is I am not able to find any photo's or sketches of these plants. I
would love to try and locate some of these plants during the raining season
which is about to start but I thought it would be easier if I had illustration
etc to look at. And if I have these I could ask around if people might have
seen some of them around.

I thought I could ask you maybe you might be able to asist me somewhere.

Cheilanthes capensis
C. deltoidea
C. dinteri
C. eckloniana
C. hastata
C. hirta
C. inaequalis
C. involuta
C. kunzei
C. marlothii
C. multifida
C. namaquensis
C. nielsii
C. parviloba
C. pentagona
C. rawsonii
C. robusta
Pellaea calomelanos
P. dura
P. pectiniformis
Ophioglossum costatum R.Br.

Ophioglossum lancifolium C.Presl

Ophioglossum polyphyllum A.Braun

Ophioglossum reticulatum



Adiantum incisum

Adiantum poiretii



The website where I found this names wasn't even able to give me
locations on these plants which I found rather dissapointing. But at least
now I know there a very nice selection of xerophytic ferns in Namibia





I would really appreciate your help immensely.



Kind regards from Namibia

Doret
