Cheilanthoideae is one of the five subfamilies of the Pteridaceae family of ferns.[1]

Phylogenic relationships

The following phylogram, shows a likely relationship between Cheilanthoideae and the other Pteridaceae subfamilies.[2]

Pteridaceae

Cryptogrammoideae

Ceratopteridoideae

Pteridoideae

Vittarioideae

Cheilanthoideae

Although Cheilanthoideae subfamily itself is thought to be monophyletic, at least half of its genera (including Cheilanthes, Doryopteris, Notholaena, and Pellaea) have been shown to be polyphyletic.[3]

Genera

The Cheilanthoideae subfamily contains the following genera:[1]

  • Allosorus Bernh. 1805
  • Cheiloplecton Fée 1857
  • Hemionitis L. 1753
  • Lytoneuron (Klotzsch) Yesilyurt 2015
  • Mildella Trev. 1877
  • Myriopteris Fée 1852
  • Ormopteris J.Sm. 1875
  • Paragymnopteris K.H.Shing 1993
  • Parahemionitis Panigrahi 1993
  • Pentagramma Yatsk., Windham & E.Wollenw. 1991
  • Trachypteris André ex Christ. 1899
