Asplenium diellaciniatum

Asplenium diellaciniatum is the former Diellia laciniata, an endangered fern endemic to Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi. Wild plants grow on the ground in mesic forest in the Kōkeʻe uplands around 1,100–1,200 m. It is grown in a few conservation collections (such as Tallinn Botanic Garden), and it needs mild, humid, shaded conditions.
