Diplaziopsis C. Christensen. Common name: Glade Fern.
A genus of 4 species, perennial herbs, of e. Asia and e. North America. Alternatively, our single North American species is sometimes placed in the monotypic genus, Homalosorus Small ex Pichi Sermolli (Christenhusz, Zhang, & Schneider 2011); it does differ in chromosome number from Asian Diplaziopsis. PPG II has decided to include Homalosorus within Diplaziopsis (PPG II, in prep.).
