Drynaria sagitta

A Philippine basket or oak-leaf fern recorded from Luzon and Mindanao, with dated elevations of 1800–2000 m in montane forest. Like other Drynaria it grows on trees and rocks with a creeping rhizome. Treat it as a cool, bright, humid montane epiphyte.

Where it grows wild

Montane forest on Mindanao (around Mount Apo) and the Cordillera of northern Luzon. Drynaria typically sit on trunks, branches and mossy rocks in bright, broken light. No species-specific habitat notes were reachable.

Dated records at 1815–1980 m; one lowland record in Pampanga at about 210 m is doubtful.
