  • Report date2020-07-10

Fet A-Kai, Pi-Fong & Pei-Jun. We are lucky landing on a fern-rich and COVID-free Island!

 

 

Kuo lab's members @ Tinchih天池! These young gays have an averaged age < 30 year-old

 

Chao lab's members! Much younger!! == 18 in the average forever!

 

Hiking to Mt. Chingshe青蛇山….

 

One of our targets, the super star-Tectaria sultii. Also the rarest Tectaria fern in Taiwan. Show up (and Pi-Fong is satisfied) finally!

 

Truly fertile individual of Lomariopsis boninensis!

 

Yi-Hsuan are collecting some gametophyte (being confused by Lomario-like bryophytes probably).

 

Unexpected finding, underground gametophyte of Helminthostachys zeylanica

 

One of our target ferns Schizaea dichotoma, quite tiny sporophytes and still looking for its gametophytes…

 

Interesting photo~ Pei-Jun is showing her love to Dipteris!

 

Two girls are enjoying their almost fern-free trips. Umn... look great too!
