Lecanopteris
''Lecanopteris'' is a genus of ferns in the family Polypodiaceae, subfamily Microsoroideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). They have swollen hollow rhizomes that provide homes for symbiotic ants. All are epiphytic plants that naturally occur from Southeast Asia to New Guinea. Several species are in commerce, being grown as houseplants and greenhouse curiosities. Taxonomy Phylogeny The monophyletic genus ''Lecanopteris'' has been divided into two sub-genera, ''Lecanopteris'' and ''Myrmecopteris''. All the species have rhizomes associated with ants. Subgenus ''Lecanopteris'' was monophyletic, and ''Myrmecopteris'' was paraphyletic. A 2019 molecular phylogenetic study suggested that the genus was related to three other clades, treated as genera, related as shown in the following cladogram. , the ''Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World'' recognizes the segregate genera; other sources do not.

Lecanopteris Sinuosa
''Lecanopteris sinuosa'' is a fern that belongs to the fern genus ''Lecanopteris''. This epiphytic plant has a mutualistic relationship with stingless shelter ants, which makes it a myrmecophyte. The ant species associated with ''L. sinuosa'' belong within the genera '' Crematogaster'', ''Technomyrmex'' or ''Iridomyrmex''. The ants rear their larvae within the rhizome for protection, and in turn, ''L. sinuosa'' receives nutritional benefit from feces and other debris left behind by the plants. It is also suggested that ''L. sinuosa'' benefits from increased protection from herbivory and increased spore dispersal. ''Lecanopteris sinuosa'' belongs in the subgenus ''Myrmecopteris'' (comprising four species total), which is characterized by ferns that have peltate scales and sori that are deeply immersed on the pinnae. Rhizome morphology The unique rhizome structure of ''L. sinuosa'' allows it to maintain a mutualistic relationship with ants. As the plant is young, the rhizo ...
