Hymenophyllum marginatum (Hymenophyllaceae)

 
Hymenophyllum marginatum is a common native fern. It is a tiny plant that grows on rocks, logs and tree trunks in wet forests, mainly in the south-western third of the island. Like all filmy ferns, the leaf laminas are only one cell thick. The sporangia are in a cup at the edge of the leaf.
