Trunk short: lvs. 2-4 ft. long: pinnae with mostly longitudinal insertion, flat, straight or slightly falcate, to 8 or 10 in. long, slightly contracted and callous at base, lower margin slightly decurrent, marked on underside with parallel longitudinal veins: male cones 6-10 in. long, with much flattened scales; female cones usually shorter and thicker than the males, the scales with incurved short point. —M. cylindrica, Hort., Bentham considers a doubtful variety of M. spiralis, being smaller, with the narrow foliage nearly of M.
