Genera

Loxogrammoideae is a small subfamily of the Polypodiaceae family of ferns. It contains the two genera Dictymia and Loxogramme. This subfamily was previously considered to be a separate family (Loxogrammaceae Ching ex Pic.Serm. 1975) and later as tribe of the Polypodioideae subfamily (Loxogrammeae R.M.Tryon & A.F.Tryon 1982). But recent molecular phylogenic studies place the group as a subfamily of Polypodiaceae.[1]
