• Comment: Mueller lists "Lindsaya lobata = L. decomposita, ...". Since Lindsaea lobata Poir. (as Lindsaya) was previously accepted by Mueller on p. 137 of the Systematic Census (1882), Lindsaea decomposita Willd. (as Lindsaya) is here treated as being a newly-accepted name in this Supplement with L. lobata in synonymy.
