Ferns & Lycophytes

Introduction

Welcome to Ferns and Lycophytes, a project of the Missouri Botanical Garden.

Project Background and Goals

The Ferns and Lycophytes project is an ongoing effort to provide a complete set of information for as many taxa as possible in a single database. The project draws upon the following sources:

       Modern references made available in electronic form

       Historical studies that have been digitized

       Original content provided by researchers

Links are provided to lower taxa and keys. Each species entry includes accepted name, pertinent synonymy, data source(s), text description, references, distribution, notes, and images.
