Platycerium willinckii (wil-lin-key-eye) is sometimes called Java Staghorn. Native to Java and the Sunda Islands. Closely related to P. bifurcatum but the staghorn leaves are not pendulous and may be deeply lobed. Many P. willinckii species have about 12 leaves growing from the bud. The undersides of the healthy leaves are more hairy. The white hairs protect them from high temperatures and water loss. With their white hairs, these healthy leaves create a striking contrast to the brown shield leaves.
