Asplenium dielpallidum

Asplenium dielpallidum is the new name (N. Snow, 2011) for Diellia pallida, an endangered fern endemic to Kauaʻi. Recent records come from the Mahanaloa and Koaiʻe valleys of western Kauaʻi at about 430–1,000 m, in dry-to-mesic forest under Diospyros and Pisonia, often at the base of large boulders. Grow it mild, lightly shaded and well drained.

Where it grows wild

Records describe it on bare soil at the base of a tree on a mixed mesic forest slope, and under Diospyros and Pisonia on dry, rock-strewn slopes at the base of huge boulders, with populations of about 10 plants.

GBIF observations are at 427–1,012 m.
