031.2001 Genus Pteridium Gled. ex Scop.; Fl. Carniol. 169 (1760), nom. cons.
Distribution: Worldwide. Fraser-Jenkins et al. (2015) treat most of the taxa as separate species. Zhou et al. (2014) argue for keeping only two diploid species and two tetraploids, treating the rest of the taxa as geographically isolated subspecies.
