Rhizome horizontally creeping, the scales lanceolate, acute. Stipes scat- 

 tered, ± 5 — 20 c.M. long, erect, slender, rigid, naked. Fronds linear-lanceo- 

 late, 20 — 60 c.M. long, 4—8 c.M. broad, cut down to the rachis into nume- 

 rous spreading pinnae. Pinnae linear, blunt, entire or crenate to toothed, 

 4 — 8 m.M. broad, dilated at the base, the lowest not reduced. Texture papy- 

 raceo-herbaceous, thin; rachis and both surfaces naked; veins conspicuous, 

 forked. Sori in 1 row on each side near the edge, deeply immersed, much 

 prominent on the upper surface so as to form conspicuously elevated, conical 

 or saccate papillae.

Rhizome short, the scales lanceolate, ciliate. Stipes tufted, 'i^l^—1% 

 c.M. long, rigid, naked or pilose. Fronds 20 — 70 c.M. long, ± 2'/2 — 6 c.M. 

 broad, linear-lanceolate, cut down to the rachis into entire or slightly wavy, 

 close, subspreading, bluntish pinnae 2'/2 — 4 m.M. broad, dilated at the base, 

 the lower ones growing shorter, reduced, deltoid, very blunt. Texture her- 

 baceous to subcoriaceous ; rachis naked or hispid; surfaces naked; veins 

 simple. Sori elliptical, oblique, 4 — 6 on each side of the costae, immersed, 

 somewhat prominent on the upper surface, the edges of the cavities distinctly 

 raised and covering the sori when young.
