ABSTRACT = {The tassel fern, Huperzia squarrosa (G. Forst.) Trev. is a rare epiphytic fern ally found in specific localities of the state Manipur, North East India. Regarded as a sacred plant, it has been traded extensively from ages in local markets. The species has great potential in terms of sustainability and exploited for traditional and horticultural purposes. To understand the biology of tassels, a detailed study on taxonomy is provided along with data on ecology, life cycle, reproduction, propagation techniques and current conservation status of the species. Significant harvesting guidelines and recommendations along with features that could enhance their conservation were also highlighted.},
