Neocheiropteris
Template:Short description Template:Automatic taxobox
Neocheiropteris is a genus of ferns in the family Polypodiaceae, subfamily Microsoroideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I).[1]
Taxonomy
A molecular phylogenetic study in 2019 suggested that Neocheiropteris was one of a group of closely related genera in the subfamily Microsoroideae, a group the authors termed "Lepisorus sensu lato". It species were embedded in a clade in which none of the genera appeared to be monophyletic:[2] Script error: No such module "Clade".
Species
since February 2020[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World recognized the following species, while noting that the distinction from Neolepisorus was not clear:[3]
- Neocheiropteris ensata (Thunb.) Ching
- Neocheiropteris ovata (Wall. ex Hook. & Grev.) Fraser-Jenk.
- Neocheiropteris palmatopedata (Baker) Christ
- Neocheiropteris triglossa (Baker) Ching
Plants of the World Online submerges Neolepisorus into Neocheiropteris,[4] although placing some species that the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World accepts in Neolepisorus in Microsorum.[5]
