Amazing pictures! This species very closes to D. riparium. Sometimes I could hardly distinguish one from another.
Thanks for mentioning that. Do you think they are synonymous? Diplazium donianum and D. bantamense are two others that I have considered. If you decide it might be something else, please let me know.
