Angiopteris Chongsengiana
''Angiopteris'' is a genus of huge evergreen ferns from the family Marattiaceae, found throughout the paleotropics from Madagascar to the South Pacific islands. Species of smaller stature with elongate synangia and creeping rhizomes are sometimes segregated into the genus '' Archangiopteris'', and a once-pinnate monotypic segregate genus has been called ''Macroglossum'', but molecular data supports inclusion of these taxa within a broad concept of ''Angiopteris''. ''Angiopteris evecta'' has been introduced and naturalized in Hawaii, Jamaica, and parts of Central America, where it has become an invasive weed in lower elevation drainages. They feature a large, erect, woody rhizome with a wide base supported by thick roots. The fronds are deltoid, pinnate, long, with spreading leaflets.Ellison, Don (1999) Cultivated Plants of the World.

Angiopteris Evecta
''Angiopteris evecta'', commonly known as the king fern, giant fern, elephant fern, oriental vessel fern, Madagascar tree fern, or mule's Foot fern, is a very large rainforest fern in the family Marattiaceae native to most parts of Southeast Asia and Oceania. It has a history dating back about 300 million years, and is believed to have the longest fronds of any fern in the world. Description ''Angiopteris evecta'' is a self-supporting evergreen perennial fern with very large bipinnate fronds. The trunk-like rhizome is massive, measuring up to in diameter. The older portions of the rhizome lie on the ground while the newer growth may rise vertically up to high. The arching, glossy green fronds, which emerge from the tip of the rhizome, may reach up to long and wide, with the fleshy green petiole (leaf stem) making up of that length. They are said to be the longest fern fronds in the world, and despite their enormous size they have no woody strengthening tissues in the fronds ...
