===Fronds: === ''M. plurinervia'' normally has a maximum of about 8 fronds, with the norm being in the 3 to 5 range. Plants with 1 or 2 fronds are, however, not uncommon. In similar manner to other species with multi-twisted rachises, the pinnae on ''M. plurinervia'' fronds appear to extend radially from the rachis (like the branches of a tree) but, in fact, the rachis itself spirally twists through a number of complete 360 degree revolutions. The pinnae extend more or less laterally from the rachis at an angle, although they are normally angled slightly upwards, with the apical pinnae extending at an extremely acute angle. The number of complete twists of the rachis normally averages 3 to 4, sometimes more, with the majority of these twists usually occurring in the upper section of the rachis. The rachises on some mature plants, however, are only marginally twisted. Likewise, the rachises on some small adult plants often twist gradually through one only complete revolution.
