I found this growing on a Grey Oak. It's amazing how much I miss every day. This must have been growing for a while and the tree is right on my everyday walk. I suspect I take in very little that is new. Hopefully I will be more attentive and less crude with time...

This epiphyte is soft to touch. The simple pinna (without stalk) of my sample is about 22 cm and the stipe 14 cm. The margins are wavy as visible in the pictures. It's hairy on both sides and the spores are covered by a web of white intermeshing hair.

Thank you Arun ji. I apologise for a typo in my nomenclature (it was correct in the subject line of the email). It should have read Pyrrosia flocculosa.

Regards,
Ashwini
