Stigmatopteris C.Chr., Bot. Tidsskr. View in CoL 29: 292. 1909.
Stigmatopteris View in CoL has numerous pellucid-punctate glands in the blades (best seen with a hand lens against transmitted light). In dried material these glands often darken. Blades are ± glabrous except in the grooves of the rachises and costae adaxially. Further characters are blade (mainly along rachises and costae) scales with uniseriate teeth or cilia that end in bulbous, often orangish or brownish, glandular cells, clavate vein apices (hydathodes) that end short of the blade margins adaxially, and exindusiate sori. The genus is monophyletic, entirely neotropical, and contains 24 species ( Christensen 1909, 1913, Moran 1991). It is sister to a clade comprising polystichoid ferns such as Arachniodes View in CoL , Dryopteris View in CoL , and Polystichum ( Moran & Labiak 2016) View in CoL .
