Taxonomy
At one time, all thelypterioid ferns were included in the genus ''Species
Using the circumscription of the genus in PPG I, , the ''Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World'' accepted three species: *'' Thelypteris confluens'' (Thunb.) C.V.Morton *'' Thelypteris krayanensis'' K.Iwats. & M.Kato *'' Thelypteris palustris'' (Salisb.) Schott Other sources place the entire subfamily Thelypteridoideae in the genus, and so accept many more species, including the following (synonyms from the ''Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World''): * ''Thelypteris aculeata'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta aculeata'' * ''Thelypteris appressa'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta appressa'' * ''Thelypteris bonapartii'' (Rosenst.) Alston = '' Amauropelta bonapartii'' * ''Thelypteris campii'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta campii'' * ''Thelypteris chimboracensis'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta chimboracensis'' * ''Thelypteris conformis'' (Sodiro) A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta conformis'' * ''Thelypteris correllii'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta correllii'' * ''Thelypteris dodsonii'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta dodsonii'' * ''Thelypteris elegantula'' (Sodiro) Alston = '' Amauropelta elegantula'' * ''Thelypteris euthythrix'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta euthythrix'' * ''Thelypteris fluminalis'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta fluminalis'' * ''Thelypteris inabonensis'' Proctor = '' Amauropelta inabonensis'' * ''Thelypteris kunthii'' ( Desv.) Morton = '' Christella normalis'' * ''Thelypteris macra'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta macra'' * ''Thelypteris nevadensis'' (Baker) Clute ex Morton = '' Parathelypteris nevadensis'' * ''Thelypteris noveboracensis'' (L.) Nieuwl. = '' Parathelypteris noveboracensis'' * ''Thelypteris ovata'' R.P.St.John = '' Pelazoneuron ovatum'' * ''Thelypteris pilosa'' (M.Martens & Galeotti) Crawford = '' Stegnogramma pilosa'' * ''Thelypteris puberula'' (Baker) Morton = '' Christella puberula'' * ''Thelypteris rosenstockii'' (C.Chr.) R.M.Tryon = '' Amauropelta rosenstockii'' * ''Thelypteris semilunata'' (Sodiro) A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta semilunata'' * ''Thelypteris simulata'' (Davenport) Nieuwl. = '' Coryphopteris simulata'' * ''Thelypteris subtilis'' A.R.Sm. = '' Amauropelta subtilis'' * ''Thelypteris verecunda'' Proctor = '' Goniopteris verecunda'' * ''Thelypteris yaucoensis'' Proctor = '' Goniopteris yaucoensis''References
