Adiantum cultratum

Adiantum cultratum C.Presl is an obscure Neotropical name with only a handful of GBIF records, mostly from Brazil with one from Mexico. It should not be confused with Adiantum cultratum Willd., which is a synonym of Lindsaea cultrata. With no measured climate, this profile generalises from Neotropical lowland forest Adiantum, and all values are low-confidence estimates.
