Is this the same plant?

"Polypodium Leucotomos (Calaguala) is the commonly referred to name of a herb that appears to possess moderately potent protective effects against sun-induced skin damage; may also be an immune booster".

@Ee1518: "Polypodium leucotomos" is a mis-spelling of Polypodium leucatomos according to IPNI, the definitive source of plant scientific names. World Ferns says Polypodium leucatomos is a synonym of Phlebodium decumanum, although Plants of the World Online says it's a synonym of Phlebodium aureum. I usually go with World Ferns when sources differ. Peter coxhead (talk) 19:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
