==Description== Species of Dipteris grow from creeping rhizomes, and have large stalks to the sporangium and annulus. The rhizomes have bristles (or hairs) and the fronds have uniseriate hairs (having one line or series). All species of Dipteris have spore-capsules that are carried on the lower surface of the broad lobed frond. The fronds can reach up to 50 cm long.
