Aleuritopteris albomarginata ABFEB2017/02 : 2 posts by 2 authors. 6 images.

This was yesterday. The other Aleuritopteris I posted long ago, A. formosana, has dense white farna underneath but this one has just a smear. The pinna-costae also have scales underneath in A. albomarginata. Dr. Fraser-Jenkins has confirmed the ID.
