Query photo identification. Possibly Calochlaena dubia.

The common bracken (Pteridium esculentum) has darker green, more glossy foliage. With red/brown stems when mature. And stiffer, more open fronds opposite the main stem. Often seen growing in sunnier situations.

These photographed ferns appear to resemble the Soft Bracken, (Calochlaena dubia) as the fronds are not opposite the main stem. They appear to be paler green with more dense, lacy fronds.

(I have made uncountable errors in identification with Wikipedia images) and am not an authority on the subject of Australian ferns. Please disregard this if I am wrong. Poyt448 (talk) 07:09, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
