Hymenophyllum tunbrigense for #fernfriday
I visited this fern where it was originally found in Tunbridge Wells (hence the namesake) and coming from the NW of England, was amazed to find a stronghold of traditionally Atlantic species hidden in the gorges of the Weald 🪴

Plagiochila punctata

A hyperoceanic liverwort found in damp, rainy woodlands across the Altantic rainforest zone in the UK.
It can most easily be differentiated from other Plagiochila species by it's significantly smaller size 🔍🌿
