An arctic-alpine species also depredated by Victorian botanists.
As with W.ilvensis this species is similarly protected by the
Conservation of Wild Creatures and Wild Plants Act, 1975. As
also with the last species it can be mistaken for a small
depauperate Cystopteris fragilis. Its history and distribution is
fully documented by M.H. Rickard (Br. Fern Gaz., 10: 275-280;
1972).
All squares from which the species has at some time been
verified are indicated by solid dots.
