Rhizome erect, clothed with short, inconspicuous scales Stipes densely 

 tufted, 1 — 2 c.M. long, more or less clothed with soft, spreading, reddish 

 hairs. Fronds linear-lanceolate, 8 — 23 c.M. long, I'/i — ^'/j c.M. broad, narrow- 

 ed towards both ends. Pinnae + ereeto-patent, contiguous, straight or fal- 

 cate, slightly decurretot at the base, the edge distinctly, bluntly or sharply 

 toothed, the apex bluntish or acuminate; lower pinnae gradually reduced. 

 Texture papyraceo-herbaceous ; surfaces slightly and the rachis more densely 

 hairy like the stipe; veins simple. Sori superficial, ± 3 — 6 on each side, 1 

 to each tooth, rather distant.
