Hymenophyton flabellatum is a dendroid thalloid liverwort commonly known as Fan liverwort. It belongs to the family Hymenophytaceae and can be found in wet forests of New Zealand, Chile, and Australia. It closely resembles small filmy ferns and can be confused with another liverwort species. The plant has olive green palmate fronds with forking thallus wings and contains 1-celled marginal slime papillae. It produces spores and disperses through elongated structures called elaters. Hymenophyton flabellatum is commonly found in rainforests and wet forests, growing on shaded wet soil and old logs. It is also a larval host for the insect Sabatinca chalcophanes. The liverwort contains characteristic chemical compounds such as apigenin 6,8-di-C-glycosides and 1-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-but-2(E)-en-1-one, which gives it a pungent taste.
