The Killarney Fern that Leaped Across Oceans – October 5th, 2020

Muckross-based botanist Rory Hodd found Europe's rarest fern in Killarney National Park - a neotropical fern, Stenogrammitis myosuroides. It had only ever been found before in Jamaica, Cuba and the Dominican Republic. The Kerry mousetail has been suggested as a common name for the newly-discovered fern.
