Microsorum krayanense

A little-known Bornean Microsorum named in 1991 after the Krayan area of the interior highlands. Little is published beyond the description, so grow it like other forest Microsorum: shaded, warm, humid and on an airy, freely draining medium.

Where it grows wild

Probably a fern of shaded, wet rainforest in the Krayan highlands of north-east Borneo, growing on tree trunks, rocks or the forest floor. The habitat is inferred from the name and from related Bornean Microsorum, not from detailed field data.

Elevation not recorded; the Krayan plateau lies around 900 to 1,200 m, higher than the 430 m climate site used here.
