Abstract
Sun, B.‐Y., Kim, M. H., Kim, C. H. & Park, C.‐W.: Mankyua(Ophioglossaceae): a new fern genus from Cheju Island, Korea. ‐ Taxon 50: 1019–1024. 2001. ‐ ISSN 0040–0262. Mankyua chejuensegen. & sp. nov. (Ophioglossaceae)is described from a lowland swampy area of Cheju Island off the south coast of the Korean Peninsula. The diagnostic characters include: (1) ternately divided compound trophophore; (2) linear and fleshy sporophore branched at base; and (3) creeping rhizome with proliferous roots. The new fern is somewhat morphologically related to Helminthostachysand Ophioglossum, but distinct enough to merit generic status.
