@Tapirlord out of interest how does this vary from subglandulosum?

You can't tell the difference without a hand lens, the hairs have small glands at their tips. I have wondered whether it's just a habitat variation.

Personally having read a few papers I would prefer to use the revised name, Asplenium subglandulosum, for both species.
