 on the anterior and posterior branched of adjacent fascicle* of veins, indusiate 

 Industum linear, attached to the venules on opposite sides of the proximate sori, 

 the free margins face to face, at first conniving, at length separating down the 

 centre of the twin sorus, which becomes confluent into a broadly-linear mass. 

 Vein* two* or three-times forked, from the prominent mid vein; venules parallel, 

 disunited at their apices, which are club-shaped, (rarely anastomosing below). 



S. VULOARE; fronds very variable; normally broadly-linear or oblong strap-shaped,
