Asplenium azomanes

A small western Mediterranean spleenwort of the A. trichomanes group, described from the Balearic Islands and also found in eastern and southern Spain and Portugal; several recorders treat it as A. trichomanes subsp. coriaceifolium. It lives in shaded rock fissures and has the Mediterranean rhythm of a hot, dry summer and a mild, wet winter.
