 higher simple. Sori subcostular or inframedial on the lowest (1 or more 

 lower?) veins; indusium small, thin, pale-yellow-brown,

Main and secondary rachises when young with the tomentum not 

 rarely intermixed with a few scattered, subfiliform squamules; pinnulae 

 sometimes incised to ^ji-^ay down to the costa, with the costa beneath 

 naked or glabrescent (when young sparingly deciduously subulate-squam- 

 ulose); main veins with 2 — 4 veins on a side.

Stipes to 50 cm. or more long, fuscous when dry, densely scaly, the 

 scales long, palish-yellow-brown, very minutely brown-ciliolate-serrulate, 

 the lower subfiliform, the others subulate-lanceolate, long-acuminate, 

 leaving the stipe rough when they fall. Fronds 2-pinnatifid, the rachis 

 above deciduously puberulous with short, curved, red-brown hairs, beneath 

 when young probably furfuraceous with red-brown, irregularly flmbriate- 

 stellate squamules, the covering leaving the rachis punctulato-asperulous 

 when it falls. Pinnae lanceolate-ovate, shortly acuminate, to 50 cm. or 

 more long, the rachis pale-brown, rather hispid above and deciduously 

 squamulose beneath, as are the costae, the hairs acute, erected, articulated, 

 pale-yellow-brown, the squamules red-brown, partly lanceolate and ciliolate, 

 partly roundish and irregularly fimbriate (substellate-peltate). Pinnulae 

 subremote, horizontal, articulated to the rachis, the higher sessile, the 

 central the largest, the lower somewhat deflexed, short-stalked; largest
