Swamp Shield Fern (Cyclosorus interruptus)
This type of fern was collected here near Botany Bay by Joseph Banks & Daniel Solander in 1770. This is the only population of this fern in the Sydney area, in swampy ground not far from Sydney Airport. It's not called "Botany Bay" for nothing. It grows with another swamp fern Blechnum indicum.
This photographed plant has undergone considerable review, name changes and taxonomic debate.
