Dear Friends,

Came across this herb at Purandar fort. One single leaf was seen at the bottom almost adhering to the ground, reminding me of the leaf of Hebenaria grandifloriformis. Not sure as to what this could be. Kindly help me in identification.

Date/Time: 31-07-2010 / 08:15AM

Location: Purandar Fort

Habitat: Wild
Plant habit: Herb.

regards
Prashant

Yes this is Ophioglossum, ophio meaning snake and glossum meaning
toungue. One teh basis of snake toungue like structure of the
sporophyte. But leaves are too small to be reticulatum I think.

Ophioglossum reticulasum is a great choice but not sure of the species but Ophioglossum for sure.
