Gleichenia squamulosa known locally as yerba loza, palmita and huadahue, is a fern endemic to Chile with a natural distribution ranging from Maule Region (~35° S) in the north to Aysén Region (~47° S) in the south including the Juan Fernández Islands. It is found from sea level up to 1500 m.a.s.l. and occurs in humid areas that are not too shady.
