In dense forest, Mt. Calelan, alt. 2150 m., No. 11353

This suggests the common C. caudata (J. Sm.) of Lu- 
zon, more than any other species; it is most easily distinguished 
by the pubescence, the diverse paleae being persistent on 
the costa, and some of them also on the costules and rha- 
chises of the pinnae. C. javanica is another species somewhat 
similar in general appearance.
