This is a very beautiful species, with an aureo-fuscous tint, 
increased by the deeper golden brown of the copious patent 
sets©. Blume first referred it to Polypodium, and we think 
rightly, and afterwards removed it to Grammitis , and he both 
figures and describes the sori as “ rotundiP Our specimens 
from Mr. Lobb precisely accord with one from Blume him- 
self in our Herbarium. Thin and membraneous as the texture 
appears when dry, it becomes thick and somewhat pulpy 
when soaked. Held between the eye and the light the frond, 
when magnified, is seen to be full of pellucid points or minute 
areoles.
