Anogramma leptophylla, sometimes called Jersey fern,[1] is a species of fern in the family Pteridaceae.[2] It is found worldwide in temperate and subtropical regions. A rarity in the Pteridophyta, it is a fern whose sporophyte tends to have an annual life cycle.[3] The gametophytes of this species have the ability to become dormant and wait as much as two and a half years until conditions are appropriate for the sporophyte stage of the life-cycle.[4]
