' bostoniensis', which is conventionally associated with N. exaltata (Benedict, 1916 a). An overview of the most frequently cultivated forms is given by Hoshizaki & Moran (2001). Morton (1958) suggested that ' bostoniensis' was possibly a hybrid with N. exaltata as one parent. Its constant sterility, morphological instability and vegetative vigour indicate a hybrid origin, but there is no reason to assume that N. exaltata is involved as parent, when we consider that N. x hippocrepicis, which originated well outside the distribution area of N. exaltata, exactly mimics the morphology of N. exaltata, and another such hybrid may equally well have given rise to ' bostoniensis'.","source":"A conspectus of the native and naturalized species of Nephrolepis (Nephrolepidaceae) in the world","sourceTaxonKey":100107283},{"key":464746867,"taxonKey":2650927,"type":"biology_ecology","language":"eng","description":"Habitat & Ecology - Occurs in a variety of habitats, at low to middle elevations (sea level to 1170 m).","source":"A conspectus of the native and naturalized species of Nephrolepis (Nephrolepidaceae) in the world","sourceTaxonKey":100107106},{"key":464746868,"taxonKey":2650927,"type":"description","language":"eng","description":"Habit, rhizome morphology.

' bostoniensis' and all cultivars derived from it, which are widely cultivated. The name has been widely, and mistakenly, applied to specimens from all over the world. Introductions: contrary to what might be expected, N. exaltata does not seem to naturalize often outside its native range. Most of the naturalized occurrences concern islands in the Atlantic, and may be diffcult to distinguish from native occurrences. On the Canary Islands, it is considered as an introduction by Hohenester & Wells (1993), but on Bermuda as native by Britton (1918). One collection was seen from St Helena (Packer HL 10, Jamestown), where it is possibly introduced. Some specimens are apparently collected in the wild in Africa and are regarded as naturalized escapes by Verdcourt (2001). Specimens were collected on the Hawaiian Islands as early as 1788 (David Nelson s. n., BM) 1825 (Macrae s. n., BM) and 1837 on Oahu (Barclay 1227, BM), and N. exaltata should be regarded as native there. Wagner et al. (1999) distinguished the Hawaiian population as subsp. hawaiiensis on basis of a comparison with the Caribbean population, but most of their distinguishing characteristics fall within the range of N. exaltata if the Florida specimens are taken into account.","source":"A conspectus of the native and naturalized species of Nephrolepis (Nephrolepidaceae) in the world","sourceTaxonKey":100107106},{"key":464746870,"taxonKey":2650927,"type":"distribution","language":"eng","description":"Distribution - Florida, the Bahamas, Turks & Caicos, Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Mexico (Veracruz only), Bermuda, Panama, French Guyana (one specimen seen), Hawaii.
