Asplenium cultrifolium

Asplenium cultrifolium is an old name used by Linnaeus and later by Sieber and Roxburgh. GBIF has only a few old herbarium specimens (from Jamaica, Caracas and Brazil, plus some labelled as from the Cape) and no usable wild records. Roxburgh's use is a synonym of Asplenium simile. Without a clear identity there is no reliable basis for growing conditions.
