About the Author

Nathan Smith

I am an amateur botanist working on the fern and lycophyte florulas of Santa Catarina Island and the Furnas River Reserve, in southern Brazil.

This collection was made 300 m higher than the reported distribution for this species in Mickel & Smith (Memoirs NYBG 88: 685), but fairly close to the type locality. The yellow costa is very distinct in the dried specimen. [gallery link="file"...
