Plants 2–120 cm. Stems 1–10 mm diam., sparsely scaly. Leaves erect. Proximal leaves broad, simple and lobed to 4-pinnate, glabrous; distal leaves finely dissected with linear ultimate segments. Sporangia nearly sessile, usually densely packed, globose. Spores tetrahedral.
Distribution
Tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate regions worldwide.
Discussion
Species 3–4 (3 in the flora).
