'''''Cheilanthes viscida''''' is a species of [[Cheilanthes|lip fern]] known by the common names '''viscid lip fern''' and '''viscid lace fern'''. It is native to southern [[California]], where it is an uncommon member of the flora in rocky areas in the region where the coastal mountains meet the deserts. Its distribution extends into [[Baja California]]. This fern produces frilly leaves up to about 30 centimeters long, each divided into segments which are subdivided, the ultimate segments just a few millimeters long and widely lance-shaped to oblong. The leaf segments bear resin glands which exude a very sticky, clear fluid. The leaves are also somewhat hairy. The leaf segments have curled edges along which are located the [[sorus|sori]] with their brown [[sporangium|sporangia]].

Myriopteris viscida, formerly known as Cheilanthes viscida, is a species of lip fern known by the common names viscid lip fern and viscid lace fern.

It is native to southern California, at elevations of 100–1,600 metres (330–5,250 ft).

Its distribution extends into northern Baja California.

Description

[edit]

This fern produces frilly leaves up to about 30 centimeters long, each divided into segments which are subdivided, the ultimate segments just a few millimeters long and widely lance-shaped to oblong. The leaf segments bear resin glands which exude a very sticky, clear fluid.

The leaves are also somewhat hairy. The leaf segments have curled edges along which are located the sori with their brown sporangia.
