Thelypteridaceae Pic.-Ser.

Genera 149–153

  • Chapter
Spores of the Pteridophyta

Abstract

A worldwide family of five genera including Cyclosorus, with c 650 species, one of the largest genera among the derived ferns, treated in 20 subgenera. The classification of the family is not resolved since several systems are proposed recognizing different genera and subgeneric groups. The system of A.R. Smith, followed here, is a tentative one that treats most of the taxa under Cyclosorus. Some species in this or other subgenera have incomplete authors because they have not yet been formally transferred to the genus in which they are treated.
