Scales: Spreading, linear to broadly linear; dark brown; reflexed; base dilated like a gourd shape. Blade: Oblong-ovate to ovate; apex acute; 15-30 cm × 10-15 cm. Pinnae: Shortly stalked. Pinnules: Linear-oblong to lanceolate; apex and base acute; decurrent; basal pinnules halfway to deeply pinnatifid. Sori: Central or near costa of pinnules; indusium round-reniform with entire margins. Related Taxa: Dryopteris saxifragivaria Nak. (Gwangneung-jokjebi-gosari): Hybrid between D. monticola and D. saxifraga Blade pentagonal Scales spreading in all directions Found in Gwangneung area
