Pronephrium is a genus of ferns in the family Thelypteridaceae in the family Thelypteridaceae, subfamily Thelypteridoideae, in the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). [1] Other sources sink Pronephrium into a very broadly defined genus Thelypteris . [3] Some species were split off into the genera Abacopteris , Grypothrix and Menisciopsis in 2021 as a result of a phylogenetic study of the family Thelypteridaceae. [4] [5]

The genus was first described in 1851 by Carl Borivoj Presl. [6] [7]
