Sterile and fertile fronds glabrescent to glabrous, indumentum on the adaxial side with fibrils on the main veins only, abaxial side with fibrils throughout (smaller on the lamina, bigger on the main veins) and non-clathrate to semi-clathrate microscales on the main veins. Sterile fronds up to 28 cm ; lamina up to 15 cm , pedate; ovate to pentagonal; pinnae/segments1–3 pairs; hydathodes present (sometimes obscure). Fertile fronds up to 42(–45) cm; lamina up to 27 cm ; pentagonal to broadly-cordate or suborbicular, pedatepinnatifid to pedate-bipinnatifid; pinnae/segments in 2–6(–7) pairs; basal pinnae/segment falcate, with 1–2 acroscopic lobes and 2–4 basiscopic segments/lobes, which are ascendant, falcate to lanceolate, first segment/ lobe divided into 1–3 lobes, lobes ascendant, lanceolate; other pinnae/segments conspicuously ascendant, lanceolate to linear-lanceolate. Indusium with margin entire to slightly eroded. Sporangium with pedicel 1(– 1½) × the capsule length; capsule with annulus with 17–25 indurated cells. Spores castaneous to light castaneous, cristate.
