About the Author
Michael Sundue
My field work is centered in Colombia, and Papua New Guinea. I am based at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (E). If you have any ferns that you want identified, please send them to me!
I would like to suggest this specimen as D. cyatheifolium, and it also looks like a tropical Chinese species, D. viridescens, which is distributed in Hainan, Guangxi, etc.
Thanks Ran Wei. I was considering D. caythefolium, but was unsure. I will apply that name for now.
