A very elegant and very distinct species allied to the Euro- 
pean Polypodium Phegopteris^ Linn, and to the Pol. hexagonop- 
terum, Sw. but very different in form and in the presence 
of the copious, spreadings ferrugineous, subulate scales which 
clothe the stipites and rachis. Kunze and others consider 
that the hairs of the sori arise from an almost obsolete invo- 
lucre, and hence they refer the plant to Aspidiacece.
