Athyrium asplenioides, or southern lady fern, is a species of the family Athyriaceae. It is a deciduous fern and reaches a height between 1 and 3 feet[1]
Its specific epithet asplenioides means "Asplenium-like". Many botanists instead considered it a variety of the common lady-fern, making it Athyrium filix-femina (L.) Roth, var. asplenioides (Michx.) Farwell.[2]
