Plants often hairy or woolly, with the sori terminal on the veins and covered with a roundish indusium.— Some 60 or 70 species are known, nearly a third of which are natives of the W. and S. W. United States, one species as far east as Conn. They are of easy cult., enjoying a position near the glass, and disliking strong, close heat and syringing or watering overhead. Most of the species grow naturally in dry rocky situations. They are among the few ferns to be found in dry regions. Commercially valuable only from the fern collector's standpoint.
