- Diagnosis
- Stem slender, basally rhizomatous, sympodially branched. Basal leaves pinnatisect of opposite decurrent lobes. Venation open. Midveins of the lobes running close to the upper margin or acroscopically laminaless, giving off dense oblique lateral veins that in the web arise directly from the axis. Flower terminal on branches, occasionally axillar at branching node, with a slightly zygomorphous perianth of 5 unequal tepals, connate at base. Venation of tepals similar to that of leaf lobes. Fruit a ternate follicetum. Follicles dorsicidal, lacking transverse striation (fibres). Seeds in rows along the abaxial suture.
