Doodia maxima (synonym Blechnum maximum), also known as the giant rasp fern, occurs in moist open forests in eastern Australia. It was considered to be a natural hybrid.[2] Some sources place the species in the genus Blechnum,[3] others, including the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), place it in Doodia.[4][1]
