Sadleria is a genus of six species of ferns in the family Blechnaceae, all endemic to Hawaii.[1]
Taxonomy[]
Georg Friedrich Kaulfuss distinguished the genus in 1824 based on samples of S. cyatheoides acquired by Adelbert von Chamisso in 1821. Chamisso had been serving as the naturalist for a Russian scientific expedition led by Otto von Kotzebue aboard the vessel Rurick.[2] Kaulfuss named the genus after (1791–1849), a Hungarian naturalist studied European ferns.[2]
Species[]
As of December 2019, the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World accepted the following species:[3]
- Sadleria cyatheoides Kaulf. (amaumau fern or rasp fern)
