The oak fern ( Gymnocarpium dryopteris ) is a fern from the family of the eyelash plants (Woodsiaceae) native to Central Europe . In many plants it is still in the family of the fern family (Dryopteridaceae).

description

The oak fern is a perennial herbaceous plant with a long, thin, creeping rhizome . The plant reaches a stature height of 10 to 40 centimeters.

The petiole and the leaf spindle are glandless. The leaf blade is light green, thin and glabrous or with sparsely hairy glands. The blade consists of three to five main leaflets.

Frond with Sori

The sori are naked and stand near the edge of the leaf.

The number of chromosomes is 2n = 160.

ecology

The oak fern is a rhizome - Geophyt , which grows mostly in larger herds. The spores spread like granular flyers over the wind. Spore ripening time is from July to August.

Vegetative reproduction takes place via the rhizome.

Occurrence

The oak fern has a circumpolar area with meridional / montane to arctic distribution and sub-oceanic tint. The species is common in Germany and Austria. The entire distribution area includes the countries of Europe as well as Turkey, Georgia, China, Japan, Eastern Siberia, Alaska, Canada and the United States.

The oak fern grows particularly in shady, acidic forests of the submontane to subalpine altitude range, but is also found in the lowlands and on the coast. In Central Europe it likes to grow in societies of the Fagion, but also the Adenostylion or the Piceion.

In the Allgäu Alps, it rises on the Diedamskopf in Vorarlberg up to 2080 m above sea level.

Taxonomy

The Oak Fern was in 1753 by Linnaeus in Species Plantarum under the Basionym Polypodium dryopteris L. first published . It was placed in the genus Gymnocarpium by Edward Newman in 1851 and received its recognized species name Gymnocarpium dryopteris (L.) Newm. Other synonyms are: Thelypteris dryopteris (L.) Sloss. , Phegopteris dryopteris (L.) Fée , Dryopteris disjuncta (Rupr.) CVMorton , Nephrodium dryopteris (L.) Michx. , Lastrea dryopteris (L.) Bory , Dryopteris linnaeana C.Chr.
