Aspidiaceae - male fern, worm fern, Echter Wurmfarn
„Its specific epithet filix-mas means „male fern (filix)“, as the plant was thought to be the male version of the female fern, being robust in appearance and vigorous in growth.“ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dryopteris_filix-mas
The root was used, as an anthelmintic to expel tapeworms, hence the name worm fern (german Wurmfarn).
