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!
Hi Michael, I think this species is probably Diplazium okudairai rather than D. wichurae, given its winged rachis, basiscopic dentate margin of pinnae, and the distribution in Yunnan Province.
Thanks Ran Wei! I will update the name and attribute your identification.
