(1) A. Bryanti Copeland. Stipe 20 to 40 cm. high, bearing sparse 

 horizontal scales on the back, and on each side a uniform wing 1 cm., 

 more or less, broad, which is truncate near the base of the stipe; frond 

 30 to 50 cm. high, ovate, trifid with close lateral lobes or more often 

 quinquefid with the lower lobes remote and connected by a broad wing; 

 apical segment 20 to 30 cm. high, about 10 cm. broad, acuminate, entire 

 or subrepand, papyraceous, glabrous; lateral segments similar but smaller; 

 primary veins curved, almost reaching the margin, connected by conspic- 

 uous, arched cross-veinlets, the large, regular areolse thus formed divided 

 into small, irregular ones with free included veinlets; sori mostly in 

 rows^ along the main veins ; indusium none or fugacious.

(2) A. Barberi (Hooker). Stipes tufted, 15 to 30 cm. high, slightly 

 scaly at the base; frond palmately 5-lobed, or more usually pinnate 

 with a large terminal segment and 1 to 4 pairs of pinnae, the upper ones 

 oblong-lanceolate, 10 to 15 cm. long, 2 to 3 cm. broad, nearly entire, 

 the lowest pair with a deep lanceolate lobe at the base on the lower side, 

 subcoriaceous, glabrous; areolae rather large and regular, with copious 

 free veinlets; sori copious, principally in two rows near the main veins.
