Asplenium delinghaense

A spleenwort described by S.Q. Liang and X.C. Zhang and named after Delingha in Qinghai, on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau. Almost nothing is published outside the original description, and GBIF holds only a DNA-sequence voucher. It is almost certainly a cold, dry-climate rock fern, and it would be very hard to keep in cultivation.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes were reachable. Asplenium in the dry mountains of Qinghai grow in rock crevices and on cliff ledges, and that is assumed here.

Not recorded in the sources consulted. The single measured site, at 4,308 m, is a regional point rather than a collection locality.
