Variation in performance of the tree fern Cyathea caracasana (Cyatheaceae) across a successional mosaic in an Andean cloud forest

In Andean forests, Cyathea caracasana grows across a range of successional habitats. This study documents variation in several measures of plant performance (stem growth, leaf production, leaf longevity, and spore production) in C. caracasana growing in open habitat, low-canopy secondary forest, and...
