RE: Elaphoglossum Panama

Hi Doret,

This is in general what Elaphoglossums look like:
- the leaf is simple and entire, on a well-defined petiole.
- fertile leaves are longer and narrower, acristichoid
- the leaf is often not very thin and more or less covered with beautifully cut-out scales
- the rhizome is superficially creeping
- mostly epiphytic or epilithic

I have seen them from lowland to over 4000 m altitude, always in moist air.
