Lonchitis aurita Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 2: 1078. 1753.

"Habitat in America meridionali." RCN: 7824.

Lectotype (Proctor in Brit. Fern Gaz. 10: 21, f. 1. 1968): [icon] " Filix latifolia , spinulis mollibus et nigris aculeata " in Plumier, Traité Foug. Amér.: 14, t. 17. 1705.

Current name: Lonchitis aurita L. ( Dennstaedtiaceae ).

Note: Tryon (in Contr. Gray Herb. 191: 95. 1962) wrongly regarded the name as illegitimate (as he believed the cited Plumier plate to be a mixture of two species). See additional comments by Morton (in Contr. U. S. Natl. Herb. 38(2): 49. 1967).
