Notes
Park Species Detail: Welsh's lists are the only ones to include this species from ZION; the origin of this record is unknown, but perhaps it is an error or deliberate replacement of the record of Woodsia scopulina, which was based on a long-misidentified voucher, K.E.W. s.n. ZION Cat #2477, of Cystopteris fragilis, J. Alexander, Park Species Data Source: ZION Herbarium & species list review, J. Alexander 2003-2005; Welsh 1995
