Elaphoglossum laminarioides
(Fée) T.Moore, Index Fil.
10. 1857. (
Fig. 43O–S
)
Range:
—Andes from
Venezuela
to
Bolivia
(CO, LP).
Ecology:
—Uncommon; epiphytic in humid forests;
350–1300 m
.
Notes:
—The blades typically dry a blackish green, unlike the pale green of most other species of
Elaphoglossum
. The peltate scales are reminiscent of
E. tectum
, but that species has stellate hairlike scales on the abaxial blade surfaces, while the long apices may lead to confusion with
E. murinum
, which has thin, long-creeping rhizomes.
