Tmesipteris lanceolata is occasionally terrestrial but usually an epiphyte on tree fern trunks. It has a creeping stem (rhizome) that lacks roots, absorbing water instead with filamentous rhizoids. A pendulous and undivided aerial stem is formed that lacks true leaves, functioning instead with scale leaves. Scale leaves are flattened in one plane, are glossy green, broad, and stiff. Round-ended sporangia are fused in pairs and lie on the upper surface at the base of forked fertile leaves.
Found on the North Island south to the Bay of Plenty
