Bolbitis inconstans

A little-documented Philippine Bolbitis with no wild records in GBIF, so its exact habitat is unknown. Treat it like other Malesian Bolbitis: a warm, shade-loving fern of wet rocks and stream banks in lowland rainforest that needs steady moisture and high humidity.

Where it grows wild

No species-specific habitat notes were found. Philippine Bolbitis typically grow on wet rocks and banks beside shaded forest streams, so that is assumed here.

No recorded elevations; the climate below is for a single point placed in the Philippines and is assumed to be lowland.
