Pyrrosia confluens, also known as the horseshoe felt fern or robber fern, is a common fern found in eastern Australia. It can be found growing as an epiphyte or lithophyte in areas with partial shade and high moisture. This fern is often seen on rocks or climbing up rainforest trees, even at high elevations. It is most commonly found north of the Wyong district. The species was first described in 1810 by Scottish botanist Robert Brown in his book Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae.
