#Pteridaceae family

• Adiantum aethiopicum — A species of terrestrial, perennial fern in the Pteridaceae family, natively distributed across Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and islands in the Indian Ocean. This plant is structurally characterized by creeping rhizomes, slender, glossy, dark brown to black stems, and delicate, compound fronds made of small, rounded or fan-shaped pinnules, being cultivated internationally as an ornamental plant due to its aesthetic foliage.
• Adiantum formosum — A species of large terrestrial fern in the Pteridaceae family, native to the rainforests and moist forests of eastern Australia and New Zealand. This plant develops structurally through deep, creeping rhizomes and produces finely divided, compound fronds that can reach heights of over one meter, supported by long, rigid, glossy-black petioles, cultivated ornamentally for its lush appearance.
• Adiantum veitchianum — A rare species of perennial fern belonging to the Pteridaceae family, native to the mountainous regions and shaded forests of China. This plant is structurally distinguished by its delicate fronds, often arranged on slender, rigid, and glossy dark-brown stems, and by small, triangular-ovate pinnules, being cultivated exclusively in botanical gardens or private collections due to its taxonomic rarity.
• Anogramma — A genus of small, terrestrial ferns in the Pteridaceae family, characterized by finely dissected fronds and an annual or ephemeral lifecycle unusual for pteridophytes. The best-known species is Anogramma leptophylla, a unique structural plant that survives from year to year primarily as a perennial tuberous gametophyte, colonizing damp, shaded, rocky soils in Mediterranean and temperate climates.
