Rhizome creeping, the scales lanceolate-linear, light-hrowu. Stipes 2 '/^ — 40 

 c.M. long, firm, erect, naked, more or less glossy, pale or brown, those of the 

 fertile fronds the longest. Fronds subdimorphous, 5 — 25 c.M. long, 2 — 10 

 c.M. broad, ovate-oblong, the fertile ooes commonly the longest and narrowest, 

 often much the narrowest, acute, entire, narrowed at the base. Texture 

 coriaceous; surfaces naked; main veins distinct; areolae hidden. Sori not 

 immersed, linear, continuous, solitary between and parallel to the main veins, 

 not reaching either the midrib or the edge, distant or contiguous. 



^ar. vulcanicuiu : Stipes of the fertile fronds not always longer 

 than those of the barren ones. Fronds smaller, + ovale, bluntisb,' uniform, 

 or the fertile ones narrower. Sori interrupted so as to form several parallel 

 rows of round, oblong or linear-oblong sori.

Rhizome wide-creeping, clothed with squarrose, broadly lanceolate, fulvo- 

 ferrugineous scales, which are peltate and castaneous at the base. Stipes erect, 

 naked, 3—10 c.M. long, those of the fertile fronds the longest. Barren fronds 

 ovate, ± 14 c.M. long, + 5 c.M. broad, long-acuminate, the edge brown, 

 rigid, the base rounded (acute in Copeland's table). Texture coriaceous ; surfa- 

 ces naked; main veins stout, straight, reaching the margin, erecto-patent ; 

 veins hidden beneath, visible above. Fertile fronds contracted, linear, ± 16 

 c.M. long, ±7—11 m.M. broad, broadest near the base, narrowed gradually 

 towards the apex, the base cuneate, the edge entire or crenulate (undulato- 

 crenate in Copeland's drawing), Sori 1—2 between the oblique main veins, 

 the pairs often confluent.
