I find I can see the thicker and narrower nerve of R. affine in the field now but I still need to check at least once in every tetrad. Still, it's a relatively easy leaf to section and mine aren't always as complete as you've obtained.Fissidenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337705259621256700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1572836115424987671.post-57817086565807829242018-12-17T21:31:55.229+00:002018-12-17T21:31:55.229+00:00Good shout and just checked (see extra photo), but...Good shout and just checked (see extra photo), but with 8 cells across adaxial surface of the costa and cross section showing ~2 layers of cells, this seems to fit heterostichum using Smith. Any more comments welcome, sorry section pic is a bit soft.Barry Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12080358305675651314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1572836115424987671.post-10900874550591981002018-12-15T13:54:04.675+00:002018-12-15T13:54:04.675+00:00Out of interest, was that R. heterostichum s.s?

R. affine might be more expected in that habitat.Fissidenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337705259621256700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1572836115424987671.post-79178217781071094642018-12-06T22:45:20.450+00:002018-12-06T22:45:20.450+00:00Lovely photo of the Kurzia.
