Hemitelia (Greek, with half a roof; referring to sori). Cyatheaceae. Tree ferns of the tropics, with round or semiglobose sori and an inferior indusium, consisting of a scale which is often indistinct and deciduous. Some 20 species occur in both hemispheres. This genus is not very well distinguished from Cyathea and Alsophila, differing only in technical characters of the indusium. For cult., see Cyathea and Alsophila; also article on Tree ferns, under ferns. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
