Plants becoming terrestrial. Rootstock nearly globose, 2-lobed. Leaves deciduous, dull green, pale to dark brown toward base, spirally arranged, less than 30 cm, pliant, gradually tapering to tip. Velum covering less than 1/3 of sporangium. Sporangium wall brown-streaked to completely brown. Megaspores white, 400–480 μm diam., boldly tuberculate to rugulate with cristate, occasionally branched to anastomosing ridges; girdle obscure. Microspores light brown in mass, 27–33 μm, spinulose. 2n = 22, 44.


Phenology: Spores mature late in spring–early summer.
Habitat: Mud flats and depressions on and around granite outcrops
