Elaphoglossoideae

	Elaphoglossoideae Elaphoglossoideae is a subfamily of the fern family Dryopteridaceae The Dryopteridaceae are a family of leptosporangiate ferns in the order Polypodiales. They are known colloquially as the wood ferns. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), the family is placed in the suborder .... It has previously been regarded as the family Elaphoglossaceae. As circumscribed by the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group in their 2016 classification (PPG I), the subfamily excludes the Polybotryoideae, which are kept separate. It can be divided into three clades: the bolbitidoid ferns ('' Arthrobotrya'', '' Bolbitis'', '' Elaphoglossum'', '' Lomagramma'', '' Mickelia'', '' Teratophyllum''), genus '' Pleocnemia'', sister clade to the bolbititoids, and the lastreopsid ferns ('' Lastreopsis'', '' Megalastrum'', '' Parapolystichum'', '' Ruhmora''), sister to the combination of the first two clades.

	Bolbitis ''Bolbitis'' is a genus of ferns in the family Dryopteridaceae, subfamily Elaphoglossoideae, in the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). Two particular members of the genus are often grown as immersed water plants in aquaria, '' B. heudelotii'', and '' B. heteroclita''.

	Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group The Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group, or PPG, is an informal international group of systematic botanists who collaborate to establish a consensus on the classification of pteridophytes ( lycophytes and ferns) that reflects knowledge about plant relationships discovered through phylogenetic studies. In 2016, the group published a classification for extant pteridophytes, termed "PPG I". The paper had 94 authors (26 principal and 68 additional). PPG I A first classification, PPG I, was produced in 2016, covering only extant (living) pteridophytes. The classification was rank-based, using the ranks of class, subclass, order, suborder, family, subfamily and genus. Phylogeny The classification was based on a consensus phylogeny, shown below to the level of order. The very large order Polypodiales was divided into two suborders, as well as families not placed in a suborder: Classification to subfamily level To the level of subfamily, the PPG I classification is as follows.

	Dryopteridaceae The Dryopteridaceae are a family of leptosporangiate ferns in the order Polypodiales. They are known colloquially as the wood ferns. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), the family is placed in the suborder Polypodiineae. Alternatively, it may be treated as the subfamily Dryopteridoideae of a very broadly defined family Polypodiaceae ''sensu lato''. The family contains about 1700 species and has a cosmopolitan distribution. Species may be terrestrial, epipetric, hemiepiphytic, or epiphytic. Many are cultivated as ornamental plants. The largest genera are ''Elaphoglossum'' (600+), ''Polystichum'' (260), ''Dryopteris'' (225), and ''Ctenitis'' (150). These four genera contain about 70% of the species. Dryopteridaceae diverged from the other families in eupolypods I about 100 million years ago.

	Rumohra ''Rumohra'' is a genus of ferns in the family Dryopteridaceae, subfamily Elaphoglossoideae, in the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I).

Many of the sori have peltate indusia and have prominent scales on the stipes of the fronds. Species have a wide distribution; for example, ''Rumohra adiantiformis'' is found in the Old World as well as the New World, including such diverse places as the Galapagos Islands and New Zealand.
