The sporangia arise always in acropetal order from the apex of the terminal seg- ments (sorophore) of the sporophyll, and are strictly lateral in origin, not originating from epidermal cells, but from marginal ones. The young sporangium appears as a lateral outgrowth of the margin, exactly like a young pinna upon the main axis, and the young sorophore has the appearance of a young pinnate leaf, and at this stage recal

This is especially marked in Aneimia and Lygo-.
