Leaves ovate to oblong-lanceolate, apex broadly acute to rounded, mucronate to short-awned, margins revolute in mid 2/3–3/4 of leaf, weakly bordered from apex to near base with (2–)4 rows of weakly thicker-walled and less-papillose or smooth cells; costa excurrent, lacking an adaxial pad of cells though convex adaxially, distally narrow, 3–4 cells across adaxial surface; distal laminal cells subquadrate to hexagonal, occasionally somewhat elongated longitudinally, width 13–18 µm wide, 1(–2):1, papillose with 4(–6) simple papillae per lumen.

Spores ca. 20–25 µm, spheric, densely low-papillose.
