We registered the occurrence of three fern species (Pityrogramma ebenea (L.) Proctor, Christella dentata (Forssk.) Brownsey & Jermy. y Blechnum occidentale L.) in an exposed soil bank in contact with waters from hot springs from active volcanoes in Ecuadorian Andes. Our observation contributes to fill a gap of information of ferns growing in extreme environmental conditions.

Brownsey & Jermy. y Blechnum occidentale L.) en un banco de suelo expuesto en contacto con aguas de fuentes termales de un volcán activo en los Andes ecuatorianos. Nuestra observación contribuye a llenar un vacío de información sobre los helechos que crecen en  condiciones ambientales extremas.
