Genera

The "grammitid ferns" form a clade of about 750 species within the Polypodiaceae.[1] They are distributed over higher elevations in both the Old and New World.[2] This group was previously treated as a separate family (Grammitidaceae), but because molecular phylogeny showed that it was nested within Polypodiaceae, it is now treated as an informal clade within that family. In 2011, Christenhusz et al.[3] placed the grammitid ferns in the subfamily Polypodioideae, within the Polypodiaceae. The following phylogram shows a likely relationship between grammitid ferns and the Polypodiaceae subfamilies, based on Schuettpelz & Pryer, 2008.[4]

Genera

The grammitid ferns include the following genera. All except the most recent were formerly included in the family Grammitidaceae. Note that many of these genera have been found to be polyphyletic, so near-term changes to this list are likely.

  • Acrosorus Copel. 1906(Southeastern Asia)
  • Chrysogrammitis Parris 1998(Southeastern Asia)
  • Cochlidium Kaulf. 1820
  • Ctenopterella Parris 2007(Southeastern Asia, Australia)
  • Dasygrammitis Parris 2007(Southeastern Asia)
  • Enterosora Baker 1887(Neotropics, Madagascar)
  • Leucostrichum Labiak 2010(Neotropics)[6]
  • Luisma M.T.Murillo & A.R.Sm. 2003(Colombia)
  • Melpomene A.R.Sm. & R.C.Moran 1992(Neotropics)
  • Moranopteris R.Y.Hirai & J.Prado 2011(Neotropics)[7]
  • Oreogrammitis Copeland 1917(Southeastern Asia, Australia)
  • Prosaptia C.Presl 1836(Southeastern Asia)
(=) Ctenopteris Blume ex Kunze[8]
  • Radiogrammitis Parris 2007(Southeastern Asia, Pacific islands)
  • Scleroglossum Alderwerelt 1912(Southeastern Asia, Pacific islands)
