Dear All,

This plant grows under a mango tree on moist soil. I am confused about its identity.Please suggest its correct ID.

Marsilea vistita? 

Generally Marsilea grows in muddy or wet habitats but this grows in moist soil.

It is perfectly ordinary Marsilea minuta.  They live in water or on dampish soil.  When on the ground they usually start to grow smaller leaves with crenate outer  margins and become fertile.  But this hasn't got that far yet.

M. vestita is non-Indian.  People posting here really need some accurate modern fern-literature on Indian Ferns!

Best wishes,

Chris Fraser-Jenkins.
