Note.

Adetogramma is similar to Microgramma and Pleopeltis in its epiphytic habit, long-creeping rhizomes and in having entire leaves with one row of sori on each side of the midrib, but differs from these genera by having free veins (vs. veins anastomosing in Microgramma and Pleopeltis ) and peltate, pedicellate, lanceolate paraphyses (vs. hairlike or lanceolate and sessile paraphyses in Microgramma , and round, peltate, pedicellate paraphyses in Pleopeltis ).

Type.
