Dear Dr. Sharma,
This fern is a relative of the "Royal Fern" - Osmunda regalis, of
Europe. It is O. huegeliana, so named as first collected by Baron von
Huegel in the early 19th Century. It is confined to C. and S. India, but
interestingly its nearest relative is a species from Madagascar, and the
assemblage of African species - so like a fair number of S. Indian endemics
it has African connections.
You'll often see it being confused with O. regalis, which does not
actually occur in India, replaced by the Himalayan O. japonica, but it is a
quite distinct species in its own right.
Best wishes,
Chris Fraser-Jenkins, Kathmandu
P.S. It is rather a threatened species, too.
