Coryphopteris Platyptera

Coryphopteris platyptera is a rare fern species native to the misty cloud forests of southern Mexico. It is known for its delicate, fern-like fronds that unfurl in a unique spiral pattern. This plant thrives in cool, moist environments with high humidity and partial shade. Its scientific name reflects its distinctive leaf shape and flat, broad structure. Despite its beauty, it remains poorly studied and is threatened by habitat loss and climate change.
