Copel., a filmy fern species, was discovered in the southern Taiwan during the botanical inventory of past decade. It represents a new record for the fern flora of Taiwan. Microtrichomanes digitatum can be distinguished from its congener, M. nitidulum (v. d. Bosch) Copel., in bearing short, stiff, simple, and dark-brown setae on the leaf margins. The present study provides taxonomic description, photographs, and a distribution map. The problems of taxonomy, ecology, conservation, distribution and phytogeography are also discussed. %M doi:10.6165/tai.2003.48(1).22
