Summary:Cheilanthes hyaloglandulosa W. &. N. Jacobsen recorded from the Drakensberg in the eastern Transvaal is described. It is allied to the C. hirta Sw. complex but may be easily recognized by the dense cover of white globular, unicellular glands on the lamina. All other members of the C. hirta complex have multicellular, occasionally gland-tipped hairs. Cheilanthes hyaloglandulosa. W. &. N. Jacobsen van die oos-Transvaal word beskryf. Dit is verwant aan die C. hirta Sw.kompleks maar word maklik onderskei deur die digte bedekking van wit bolvorminge, enkelsellige kliere aan die lamina. Al die ander lede van die C. hirta-kompleks het veelsellige hare waarvan sommige met kliere gepunt is.
