Polypodiopsida

Polypodiidae is a subclass of Equisetopsida in the sense used by Mark W. Chase and James L. Reveal in their 2009 article "A phylogenetic classification of the land plants to accompany APG III." This subclass comprises leptosporangiate ferns. It is equivalent to the class Polypodiopsida in previous treatments, including Smith et al., 2006.
