101. Cheilanthes induta. Kze. Frond sub 4-pinnate, oblong, 
obtuse, coriaceous ; pinna rather remote, stalked, ascending ; 
pinnules shortly stalked, ovate, secondary oblong tertiary , and 
the segments roundish-ovate, all glabrous above, paleaceo- 
hirsute beneath ; involucres marginal, crenulate, and as well 
as the sori continuous. Stipes flexuose, sparingly, and the 
rachises densely paleaceo-hirsute, purple. Caudex creeping.

entire ; lower ones ovate or deltoid, remote, acuminated, 
shortly stalked, deeply pinnatifid or sometimes pinnate at their 
bases ; pinnules and segments lobed or pinnatifid ; costa hispid
