Zygophlebia eminens is a species of grammitid fern. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland. It is threatened by habitat loss. [1] Its veins are more regularly free than any other Zygophlebia species besides Zygophlebia dudleyi , though some veins may be forked or fused. [3]

All Zygophlebia species are placed in the genus Enterosora by the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World, which treats this species as Enterosora eminens. However, the checklist does not give an authority for the transfer, implying the name has not been formally published. [2]

Enterosora is a genus of ferns in the family Polypodiaceae, subfamily Grammitidoideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). PPG I also recognizes the genus Zygophlebia, which more recent sources include in Enterosora. As of February 2019, many do not have formally published names in Enterosora and are retained here in Zygophlebia.
