<i>Leptochilus dolichophyllus</i> (Polypodiaceae), a New Hemiepiphytic Species From Fujian, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe have identified one new Leptochilus species based on morphological observation and molecular evidence, Leptochilus dolichophyllus H.H.Fu & H.J.Wei, from central‐northern Fujian, southeastern China. Additionally, to provide valuable molecular resources for further studies, we assembled and annotated the complete plastome of this new species ...

Evolutionary and biogeographic history of disjunct species of Polypodiaceae between tropical America and the Afrotropics [PDF]
Acta Botânica BrasílicaAcross the tropical Atlantic, morphologically similar vascular plants suggest the action of vicariance and dispersal processes. Robbin C. Moran & Alan R. Smith’s research documented this pattern for ferns and lycophytes, particularly within Polypodiaceae.

<i>Leptochilus yangjiangensis</i> (Polypodiaceae), a New Fern Species From Guangdong, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe describe Leptochilus yangjiangensis, a new fern species from Guangdong, China, which was previously misidentified as L. pedunculatus; it differs from morphologically similar congeners by coriaceous laminae and lanceolate fertile fronds. Phylogenetic analyses (using three plastid regions) place it as sister to L.

Complete Chloroplast Genome and Phylogenomic Analysis of <i>Davallia trichomanoides</i> (Polypodiaceae). [PDF]
Genes (Basel)Background/Objectives: Chloroplast genomes (plastomes) are valuable for fern systematics, yet the epiphytic lineages have remained underexplored. Methods: The Davallia trichomanoides plastome was de novo assembled from Illumina data and annotated ...
