초록

Bhutan is endowed with rich biodiversity with several edible and useful fern species. Ferns have been used by local communities for centuries as vegetables, ethnobotanical artifacts, and as medicines. Owing to the limited study of edible and useful pteridophytes in the country, the knowledgebase remains poor. In this study, we attempt to document edible and useful fern species in the country scientifically while also providing an annotated checklist.

We affectionately thank Dr. Karma Dema Dorji, current Program Director, NBC and former Program Director, Dr. Tashi Yangzome Dorji for their constant motivation and guidance. The authors would like to thank National Biodiversity Centre colleagues who always accompanied during assessment and survey of edible fern collection and other associate species. Authors would like to thank whole heartedly to the National Herbarium team for the technical input of the study, always supporting and guiding in collection of fern herbarium specimens and enumerating the edible fern species. Without the support from our local farmers who depend on wild edible plants, the list of edible ferns would not have been able to come out as a journal article. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the editors and anonymous reviews of this article. We thank the Royal Government of Bhutan for the financial support to conduct field trips.
