An evergreen fern of the Pterocallidaceae family. From the creeping rhizome, it produces sparse leaves with 7-8 pairs of broad linear elliptical pinnae. The lower pinnae are further divided into pinnates. It has a thick, paper-like, tough grass with a glossy surface and finely serrated edges. The sporangia are linear along the veins, lining the inside of the leaf, leaving 5 mm from the edge. The tips of the pinnae taper abruptly and sharply, which distinguishes it from Iwagane-sou, which has gradually tapered tips. Iwagane-zenmai also has free veins that branch out into two branches, while Iwagane-sou has a reticulated connection next to the mid-vein of the pinnae. It grows in mountain forests throughout Japan.

イノモトソウ科の常緑性シダ。匍匐(ほふく)性の根茎から、広線状楕円(だえん)形の7~8対の羽片をもった葉をまばらに分出する。下部羽片はさらに羽状に分裂する。厚い洋紙状の堅い草質で、表面にはつやがあり、縁には細かい鋸歯(きょし)がある。胞子嚢(ほうしのう)群は葉脈に沿って線状につき、葉の縁から5ミリメートルを残して内側に並ぶ。羽片の先端は急に細くなり鋭くとがることで、先端がしだいに細くなるイワガネソウと区別できる。また、イワガネゼンマイは葉脈が二また状に分枝した遊離脈であり、一方のイワガネソウは羽片の中脈の隣に網状結合をつくることでも区別できる。日本各地の山林中に生育する。 [西田 誠] ©藤島淳三"> シダ植物のおもな種類(1)〔標本画〕 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
