Where it grows wild

No species-specific habitat account was found; Hawaiian hard ferns grow terrestrially on shaded, moist banks and forest floor in mesic to wet forest. Conditions here are generalised from the genus.

Records are sparse and carry no elevations; climate sites run from near sea level on Oahu to about 760 m on Maui and Kauai.
