Closely allied to the Malayan A. persicifolium J. Sm., and perhaps 
not specifically different from that species; it differs by its nearly entire 
and longer pinne, its short sori and its very regular venation. The lateral 
veins are nearly always in groups of four: from a very short secondary 
vein or, more often, from the costa of the pinne itself, spring out two 
veins, of which the upper is always simple and soriferous, while the 
lower is forked 2—5 mm. above the costa; the lower fork of these is 
simple, while the anterior one is forked again once or twice. 
Christ has referred the specimen to A. vulcanicum BI., which differs 
from our new species by its coriaceous texture, pale colour, and equally 
cuneate base of the pinne.
