Sphaeropteris squamulata, synonym Cyathea squamulata,[2] is a species of tree fern native to the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Java, Borneo and the southern Philippines , including the Sulu Archipelago, where it grows in forest from the lowlands to an altitude of about 1500 m. The trunk is erect and up to 2 m tall. Fronds are pinnate or bipinnate and approximately 1.5 m long. The stipe is covered in densely packed firm, medium brown scales. Sori occur near the fertile pinnule midvein and lack indusia.[3]
