Asplenium Macraei Var. Sphenolobium

Sphenolobium spleenwort, scientifically known as Asplenium macraei var. sphenolobium, is a rare and intriguing fern species native to specific regions of Australia. This variant of the spleenwort genus exhibits unique morphological features that distinguish it from its close relatives. It thrives in moist, shaded environments, often found in rocky crevices or along stream banks. Its delicate fronds and specialized adaptations make it a subject of interest for botanists and conservationists. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species requiring careful protection.
