Abstract

New species are described and new combinations are made in the fern genera Cnemidaria and Cyathea from Costa Rica. Cnemidaria chiricana (Maxon) A. Rojas is considered here a species different from C. mutica (H. Christ) R.M. Tryon, and C. mutica var. contigua (Maxon) Stolze is included as a variety of the former. Cyathea povedae A. Rojas is here described as a new species and compared to C. fulva (M. Martens & Galeotti) Fée. The hybrid between Cyathea stolzei A.R. Sm. ex Lellinger and C. ursina (Maxon) Lellinger mentioned by Smith & Grayum (1988) is here described.
