Asplenium adulterinum is an allopolyploid species (2n=144) that originated
from hybridization of Asplenium viride (2n=72) and A. trichomanes subsp.
trichomanes (2n=72). It looks like Asplenium trichomanes, but the rachis
is dark brown-red only to about about 2/3 or 3/4 of its length.  In Europe
it occurs on serpentine, in North America on limestone. In North America
it's known (so far?) only from several localities in coastal British
Columbia, Canada.
