Grammitis billardieri (Grammitidaceae)

Grammitis billardieri (finger fern) is a widespread and very common native species in Tasmania. It usually grows on mossy logs, rocks or tree trunks (especially that of man fern, Dicksonia antarctica). It also grows on rocks in the subalpine and alpine zones. It is similar to G. magellanica, but lacks the dark midrib and dark spots at the ends of the veins of that species.
