Hypolepis punctata, synonym Polypodium punctatum, is a species of fern in the family Polypodiaceae. [1] It is native to China and East Asia. [1]
Dennstaedtiaceae is one of fifteen families in the order Polypodiales, the most derived families within monilophytes (ferns). It comprises 10 genera with ca 240 known species, including one of the world's most abundant ferns, Pteridium aquilinum (bracken). Members of the order generally have large, highly divided leaves and have either small, round intramarginal sori with cup-shaped indusia or linear marginal sori with a false indusium formed from the reflexed leaf margin. The morphological diversity among members of the order has confused past taxonomy, but recent molecular studies have supported the monophyly of the order and the family. The reclassification of Dennstaedtiaceae and the rest of the monilophytes was published in 2006, so most of the available literature is not updated.
Hypolepis ambigua, commonly known as pigfern, is a species of fern that grows in New Zealand.
Aspidotis is a small genus of leptosporangiate ferns known commonly as laceferns. Most species are native to slopes, ridges, and rocky outcroppings, primarily in California and Mexico, although one species included in the genus by some authorities is widely distributed in eastern Africa.
Hypolepis (beadfern) is a genus of ferns described as a genus in 1806. The word is derived from Greek, meaning "under scale". It is found in tropical and subtropical regions, primarily in the New World but also in the Old World and on various oceanic islands.

Hypolepis muelleri known as the ground fern or harsh ground fern is a common small fern found in swampy areas and beside streams in eastern Australia. Usually seen between 30 and 100 cm tall with an erect habit. Despite the common name, the fronds are soft to touch. This plant was named in honour of the colonial botanist Ferdinand von Mueller. The original specimen was collected from Alfred National Park in 1941.

Sestra humeraria, also known as huarau looper, is a species of moth in the family Geometridae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1861. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Hypolepis sparsisora, the giant edgelobed fern, is an Afrotropical fern species with an extensive range in Africa and Madagascar, where it occurs at diverse elevations. In South Africa it is present in the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and the Western Cape.
Hypolepis poeppigii is a fern species in the family Dennstaedtiaceae that has no common name. It is native to Chile and the Falkland Islands.

Hypolepis parallelogramma is a species of fern native to the foothills of the Andes.
Polypodium is a genus of ferns in the family Polypodiaceae, subfamily Polypodioideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). The genus is widely distributed throughout the world, with the highest species diversity in the tropics. The name is derived from Ancient Greek poly ("many") + podion, on account of the foot-like appearance of the rhizome and its branches. They are commonly called polypodies or rockcap ferns, but for many species unique vernacular names exist.
Emma Jones was a New Zealand author, amateur fern collector and painter. She is known for collecting a small number of fern specimens in New Zealand, which were used by Joseph Dalton Hooker in his Handbook of the New Zealand Flora.
Hiya distans, formerly Hypolepis distans, known as the scrambling ground fern is a small fern found in soils with a high humus layer, or swampy areas in New Zealand. Less often seen in Australia. Rarely recorded in north west Tasmania and King Island. There is one known population on the Australian mainland, at Macquarie Pass in New South Wales. An introduced population is at the remote Norfolk Island in the south Pacific Ocean. The scrambling ground fern features 20 to 40 pairs of primary pinnae, opposite or subopposite on the stem, at an angle of 90 degrees. The specific epithet distans is derived from Latin, meaning "widely spaced".
Hiya is a genus of ferns belonging to the family Dennstaedtiaceae. Described in 2018, it resembles ferns of the genus Hypolepis but differs from it by multiple characteristics: scrambling, indeterminate and intermittent growth of fronds; stipule-like pinnules at the base of pinnae, and a rachis-costa architecture where the adaxial sulcus of the rachis is continuous with that of the costae and costules.
Hypolepis rugosula, is a common ground fern found throughout rainforests and wet sclerophyll forests, especially after recent disturbances in the forests.
