Asplenium haenkei

Asplenium haenkei is a spleenwort described by Copeland in 1947 from the Philippines and also recorded in the Moluccas. Almost nothing about its ecology has been published, so these conditions come from the measured climate at its records and typical forest spleenwort habits. Treat it as a warm-tropical, humid forest fern.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes were reachable. The records are from forested islands of the Philippines and Maluku; a forest spleenwort of shaded trunks or banks is assumed.

Few records carry elevations. The climate sites range from near sea level to one at about 2860 m on Mindanao, which skews the averages cooler.
