Summary: | <span>The exotic fern Pteris nipponica (Pteridaceae) is reported here for first time in Argentina, based on specimens collected in the Municipal Nature Reserve “Selva Marginal Quilmeña” (Quilmes, Buenos Aires, Argentina).

It also highlights the possibility that some specimens considered to be P. cretica in previous studies may belong to the variegated cultivar of P. nipponica</span> |
