You may want to pick up a copy of Lellinger's Multilingual Glossary
for Taxonomic Pteridology.  There are a number of other terms relating
to dromy that are covered in that work (such as heterodromy, isodromy,
poecilodromus, etc.)  It's a great glossary and should be accessible
to anybody interested in ferns.  Plus it's cheap, at only $28.00 from
the American Fern Society:
