Pyrrosia rupestris

Rhizome long and creeping, branched, wiry, densely scaly; scales pale brown, papery, bases broad (which darken and persist), apices long, pointed, erect. Fronds erect, 1–8 cm long; fertile fronds longer than sterile ones, linear to narrowly spathulate, and with longer stipes; sterile fronds round to broadly obovate; stipe hairy when young. Lamina thick and leathery, covered with stellate hairs when young; upper surface becoming glabrous with age, centre of hairs on lower surface darkening to give overall rusty appearance. Sori oval, crowded (sometimes confluent) on undersurface of narrower fronds.
