The series or division of flowerless plants, or those never
having true stamens and pistils, but propagated by spores of
various kinds.
Note: The subdivisions have been variously arranged. The
following arrangement recognizes four classes: -- I.
Pteridophyta, or Vascular Acrogens.} These include
Ferns, Equiseta or Scouring rushes, Lycopodiace[ae]

smaller orders. Here belonged also the extinct coal
plants called Lepidodendron, Sigillaria, and

are divided into Floride[ae], the Red Seaweeds, and
the orders Dictyote[ae], O["o]spore[ae],
