Abstract
Rheede named nineteen species of ferns in Malayalam in his Hortus Malabaricus (Vol. 12, 1703). The botanical identity of these species made by eminent authors through ages has been studied. The study reveals that the names which were ascribed to these taxa earlier are mostly invalid now. The present work is devoted to establish their current botanical names through close examination of Rheedean plates and literature and current nomenclatural studies.
