This is one of the most common ferns within Fern Forest. It is found not only in the swamp but also in sandy upland hammocks such as the Sabal-Laurel forest on the way to the Prairie. The stiff frond is a lighter shade of green and is usually crinkled as can be seen above.
Young fronds have a pinkish blush.
Remembering the botanical name may help identify this species. The edges of its pinnae are most definitely serrated. The sori are linear in two parallel rows close to the midrib of each pinna.
