Where it grows wild

No habitat notes were reachable. Records span lowland Bengkulu (about 170 m) to montane West Sumatra (about 2100 m), so it is generalised here as a shade fern of wet rainforest; many Sumatran Asplenium are epiphytes or grow on mossy rocks.

Few records carry an elevation; the two climate sites are at about 170 m and 2100 m.
