Nephrodium Calcaratum Var. Ciliatum
Ciliated nephrodium, scientifically known as Nephrodium calcaratum var. ciliatum, is a rare and fascinating plant species native to specific regions of Southeast Asia. This unique fern exhibits distinctive cilia-like structures along its fronds, giving it its common name. It thrives in humid, shaded environments, often found in dense tropical forests. Its intricate morphology and limited distribution make it a subject of interest for botanists and conservationists. Due to habitat loss and environmental changes, the plant faces growing threats to its survival.
