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.
Based on the indument of the lamina (densely pilose), I would call this Tectaria pilosa (Fée) R.C. Moran
Do you have this name on your checklist?
T. pilosa is the only Tectaria on the checklist. Thanks for pointing this out!
