Although TL2 dates only 16 fascicles, there is a note at p. 71, the beginning of fascicle 17, that states: 'Nos. 17 to 20 of this work are four Supplementary Numbers to "The Ferns of Southern India" and contain all the Ceylon ferns not as yet detected in Southern India. Since the first portion of this work has been in the Press, three of these ferns have been found on the hills near Courtallum in the Tinnevelly district, and one has been detected on the Nilgiris, many more will doubtless still be found in Southern India, as most of them are also natives of Northern India, Burmah, or the Straits, so that this work would hardly be complete if they were not figured, all the other ferns found in Ceylon have already appeared in the former numbers of this work, so the entire work of 20 numbers, will contain figures of all the ferns of Southern India and Ceylon.'
Receipt was acknowledged in M to J. Moore, 13 January 1865.
