Biotropica, 2021
AbstractVascular epiphytes and tree ferns constitute an important part of the Atlantic Forest structure. We characterized vascular epiphyte communities on two tree fern species (Alsophila setosa Kaulf. and Cyathea phalerata Mart.) including accidental epiphytes (i.e., species that are usually terrestrial, without necessarily completing their life cycle

Low‐Trunk Epiphytic Ferns on Tree Ferns Versus Angiosperms in Costa Rica
Biotropica, 2003ABSTRACTWe studied the occurrence of epiphytic ferns on the lower trunks of two kinds of hosts: tree ferns and angiosperms. The study was conducted in Costa Rica at the La Selva Biological Field Station (50 m elev.), Las Cruces Biological Field Station (1200 m), Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve (1500 m), and Cuerici Biological Field Station (2600 m). At

Gametophyte ecology and demography of epiphytic and terrestrial tropical ferns
American Journal of Botany, 2007Factors that influence the distribution of ferns are poorly understood and likely reflect the ecology of both the sporophyte and the gametophyte generation. Little study has been done on the ecology of the gametophyte generation, especially in regard to tropical species.

Control of branching pattern in Microgramma vacciniifolia, an epiphytic fern
Planta, 1975The rate of expansion of lateral buds of Microgramma vacciniifolia (Langsd. et Fisch) Copeland (Polypodiaceae) does not differ in intact plants, in plants with the rhizome apex removed, and in plants with the apex removed and replaced with indole-acetic acid (IAA).

Tree-Fern Skirts: A Defence Against Climbers and Large Epiphytes
The Journal of Ecology, 1986SUMMARY (1) The retention of dead fronds as a fringing 'skirt' around the trunks of tree-ferns is a feature seen in many species in different parts of the world. (2) It is suggested, from observations of cultivated tree-ferns and the native species of New Zealand, that such skirts, in combination with other habits, may deter climbing plants from ...

Gas Exchange and Water Relations in Epiphytic Tropical Ferns
1989The abundance of epiphytes is a characteristic feature of the rich vegetation of the wet tropics. Among the epiphytic vascular plants ferns are quite frequent (Chaps. 2, 3 and 9). According to Holtum (1969), about half of the some 500 known fern species in Malaysia are epiphytes. Recently the ecophysiological problems linked with epiphytism are gaining

Divergence Times and the Evolution of Epiphytism in Filmy Ferns (Hymenophyllaceae) Revisited
International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2008Although the phylogeny of the filmy fern family (Hymenophyllaceae) is rapidly coming into focus, much remains to be uncovered concerning the evolutionary history of this clade. In this study, we use two data sets (108‐taxon rbcL + rps4, 204‐taxon rbcL) and fossil constraints to examine the diversification of filmy ferns and the evolution of their ...
