0383565AFFF5FFA5F0A5F8A61BA8FCBE.taxon	description	Epiphytic or lithophytic. Rhizome short-creeping, densely scaly, ca. 1 mm diam including scales, bearing fronds close together. Rhizome scales narrowly lanceolate, gradually narrowing from the base towards a long-tailed and ultimately filiform apex, 0.8 – 1.8 mm long and 0.2 – 0.3 mm wide (at base), clathrate, toothed at margin, the walls thickened and dentate. Fronds sessile, simple, linear, 2.0 – 13.2 cm long, 0.5 – 0.8 mm wide, widest above the middle, gradually narrowing towards both ends, apex acute or (occasionally) truncate, laminae coriaceous, glabrous, margins entire, flat on both surfaces. Venation difficult to see even with transmitted light, in fronds with single sori, midvein branching near frond base into two very close parallel main veins and reuniting near the frond apex, a few oblique lateral veins between the two main veins, forming a few long, narrow areoles; in fronds with double sori (our observation is based on the examination of one frond), midvein branching into three almost parallel main veins (midvein and two lateral veins) near frond base, very sparse oblique lateral veins present only on one side of midvein. Epidermal silica bodies linear, 0.1 – 0.7 mm long, present on both sides of the lamina, margin lobed, ends of lobes pointed. Sori linear, uninterrupted, following one main vein, slightly covered by a soral flap and open to one side, or rarely, fertile on both sides, each following a lateral main vein. Soral paraphyses copious, stalks uniseriate, filiform, colourless; apical cells large, funnel-shaped, length-to-width ratio of 1.1 6 0.23, yellowish. Spores bilateral, bean-shaped, monolete, yellowish, surface smooth.	en	Chen, Cheng-Wei, Lindsay, Stuart, Yong, Kien Thai, Mustapeng, Andi Maryani A., Amoroso, Victor B., Dang, Viet Dai, Huang, Yao-Moan (2019): Clarification of Two Poorly Known Vittarioid Ferns (Pteridaceae): Haplopteris angustissima and H. capillaris.
