Descriptions
Rhizome creeping, slender, branching, often densely arranged, the plant forming matted patches, up to 10 cm. long; clad when young in pale brown ovate to ovate-lanceolate to spathulate paleae up to 5 mm. long; fronds close-set along rhizome in about 3 series. Stipes hardly developed. Lamina coriac. to almost fleshy, dark green; spathulate to oblong- or linear-spathulate, gradually narrowed to base; glab. when old, ± pubescent below, and sts above, when young; veins hidden, sts the main vein evident; 5-12 × 3-5 mm.; rarely up to 3 cm. long; margins entire to faintly sinuate. Sporangia us. aggregated in a mass near apex of frond, 2-3 mm. diam., rarely as a pair of coenosori || and close to main vein and up to 1 cm. long; paraphyses few or absent.
Rhizome long-creeping (rarely shortcreeping), often mat-forming; paleae light brown, ovate to ovate-lanceolate, rarely lanceolate, obtuse to acute, 1.0-3.5 × 0.4-1.2 mm. Stipes indistinct, winged almost to base; stipe hairs absent. Lamina spathulate to linear-spathulate, rarely broadly oblanceolate, obtuse to broadly acute, (0.4-)0.5-1.9(-3.0) × (0.2-) 0.25-0.34(-0.5) cm; lamina hairs occasionally present, sparse, brown, multicellular, to 0.7 mm; texture thickly coriaceous; veins invisible, endings not darkened; midrib slightly raised or completely invisible on underside of lamina, concolorous. Sori subglobose to globose, sometimes ± coenosoroid, usually confluent when mature, usually terminal on frond, 1-4(—5) pairs, 1-3 × 1-2 mm, to 8 mm long when coenosoroid; soral vein ± equal in length to basiscopic vein, neither reaching the margin. Sporangia (240-) 252.5-319.1(-400) mcm long; indurated cells of annulus (10-) 11.0-14.0(-20). Spores (31-) 39.2-53.6 (-65) mcm diam.

Notes
editorial
The name Grammitis poeppigiana (Mett.) Pic.Serm. has frequently been misapplied in New Zealand to what is now called Notogrammitis crassior (Kirk) Parris. See note in Perrie & Parris 2012 (page 468 and 466): Notogrammitis crassior is used for the species previously known as G. poeppigiana. The neotype of the latter is actually a specimen of N. angustifolia. The new combination N. crassior is based on the first available legitimate basionym.
