  1. snuffbox fern

    A snuffbox fern is a type of vascular plant characterized by its small, compact rhizomes and clusters of fronds resembling snuff boxes. The fronds can be simple or divided into multiple leaflets, depending on the species. These ferns are typically found in moist, shady habitats, including forests, bogs, and rock crevasses. It belongs to the Asplenium (Spleenwort) genus and is often known as the "black spleenwort". The stiff, evergreen fronds typically grow in rock crevices. The term "snuffbox" refers to the spore-bearing structures located on the underside of the leaves that was historically used as a container for powdered tobacco.
