Description
It can be distinguished by the usually erect to short-creeping rhizome, the narrow, linear, winged, glabrous fronds (<7 mm wide, up to 130mm in length), the lack of distinct stipes, the absence of hairs in the sori, and sori often being more or less parallel to the midrib. The sporangia are in groups on either side of the midrib. The fronds are up to 130mm in length according to some sources, but less than 100mm according to others.
Range & habitat
This species is found from sea level up to 1400m in New Zealand, and on the main islands as well as the outlying islands. It can be epiphytic, lithophytic, or found as a subalpine scrub.
