Phymatodes C.Presl
Sori in one series on each side of the main vein and/or main laterals, round, us. without paraphyses; spores bilateral. Fronds glab., simple to pinnatifid; veins evident to obscure, us. reticulate. Copeland (Gen. Fil. 1947, 196) considers the N.Z. spp. to "represent the most probable common ancestry of both sections," but refers them to Microsorium. After a careful discussion Pichi-Sermolli (Webbia 8, 1951, 222) places them in Phymatodes.
