Shoots erect, indeterminate, 14–20(–100) cm, becoming long-decumbent, with long, trailing, senescent portion turning brown; juvenile and mature portions similar with strong annual constrictions due to formation of winter bud; juvenile growth erect. Leaves spreading to reflexed, dark green, lustrous; largest leaves narrowly obovate, leaves broadest at or above middle, 7–11 mm, margins papillate, teeth 1–8, irregular, large; smallest leaves (at annual constrictions) narrowly lanceolate, 3–6 mm; stomates on abaxial surface only. Gemmiferous branchlets produced in 1 pseudowhorl at end of each annual growth cycle; gemmae 4–6 × 3–6 mm, lateral leaves 1.5–2.5 mm wide, broadly obtuse with distinct mucro. Spores 23–29 µm. 2n = 134.
Habitat: Terrestrial in shaded conifer forests and mixed hardwoods, rarely on rock on shady mossy acidic sandstone
Elevation: 0–1800 m
