Dipteris is a genus of about seven tropical fern species from Asia, Australia and the Pacific, grown for their large, broadly lobed fronds. Most species grow in humid, shaded to partly shaded conditions on rocks and in thickets, so keep the plant moist and humid.
Dipteris is a genus of about seven species of ferns, native to tropical regions across the world, particularly Asia, with a species in northeastern Queensland in Australia. It is one of two genera in the family Dipteridaceae.
Many species are found in Malaysia, Philippines, Samoa and New Guinea, growing beside Matonia (another fern species). Most of the species grow on rocks, exposed places, clearings and in thickets.
