Abstract
Melpomene, a new genus of Grammitidaceae, is described, and combinations are made for the species known to belong to it. Melpomene can be distinguished from all other Grammitidaceae by its rhizome scales that are clathrate, basally cordate, and entire except at the apex where provided with one to ten minute papillae. The genus contains about 20 species and is primarily neotropical.Keywords
