Asplenium daucifolium (common name Mauritius spleenwort) is a species of fern in the family Aspleniaceae, endemic to the Mascarene Islands.
Taxonomy
A global phylogeny of Asplenium published in 2020 divided the genus into eleven clades,{{sfn|Xu|Zhang|Rothfels|Smith|2020|p=27}} which were given informal names pending further taxonomic study. A. daucifolium belongs to the "Neottopteris clade", members of which generally have somewhat leathery leaf tissue. It formed a clade with A. mauritiensis.{{sfn|Xu|Zhang|Rothfels|Smith|2020|p=32}}
