In habit the present very delicate species of Asplenium is allied to our Aspl. Gilliesianum, to the 



Aspl. stoloniferum 



and ternatum, of Presl. in Reliq. Hcenk.: but besides the different shap 



of the pinnae, those species have the stipes and rachis of the same colour with the frond 

 it is dark-brown, almost black.
