#3774 - Polystichum neozelandicum - Black Shield Fern
A common fern in New Zealand and the Chatham Islands, from the coast up to the mountains, on forested hillsides and banks, on coastal cliff faces under scrub, and usually in well-lit conditions.

#3729 - Dryopteris filix-mas - Male Fern
One of the plants thriving in the restored garden behind the motel. Unfortunately it's an introduced species from Eurasia and North America. Naturalised in New Zealand since 1958, and now a serious weed.
The unusual name is the result of it being thought to be the male version of the common lady fern Athyrium filix-femina. Because it's more robust and vigorous. Sigh.
Another common name is worm fern, and in Finland kivikkoalvejuuri, both refering to it use against tapeworm. Large doses cause blindness and even death, but at least you won't have tapeworms.

#1905 - Polystichum vestitum - Prickly Shield Fern
Also known as pūnui. Polystichum refers to the parallel rows of spore cases on the underside of the fronds, and vestitum (Latin for "clothed") denotes the dense cover of the scales on its leaf stalks. Fronds grow up to 600mm in length.
An evergreen or semi-green, cold-tolerant fern most common on New Zealand’s South Island, and a wide spread of Subantarctic islands.
In the northern part of its range P. vestitum is confined to montane regions or where temperature inversions keep the climate cold, but further south it can grow right down to the coast. Found in exposed habitats, such as forest margins, gulley floors and tussock grasslands, but it also commonly extends into forest in colder, wetter parts of New Zealand. On Macquarie Island it dominates the fernbrake communities, but is severely threatened by rabbits.
These ones were high in the middle of the South Island near Aoraki Mount Cook. It can be grown in cultivation, quite easily, but it slow to establish. Insect predators of the fern include the the tiny caterpillar of the "pūnui spore-eater", the "pale fern looper", and the "zigzag fern looper".
Two members of the shield fern family, Dryopteridaceae
Diplazium pycnocarpon, glade fern, prefers high moisture and humidity and does well in dense shade, often I see this species not in glades but in ravines prone to some flooding living away from the bashside of rocks(sheltered side) and as a chasmophyte, a crack dwelling plant; but to clarify it is lithophitic, rock loving, but not having an epipetric( living on rocks soley) habit.). (epipetric is a delineate rock obligate)
Dryopteris marginalis, marginal wood fern/shield fern, more generalistic to light often on embankments and highly organic soil. I feel like this one is more generalistic than most and is almost as common as christmas fern.
