Onocleaceae is a small family of terrestrial ferns in the Polypodiales order of the Polypodiopsida class.〔 The family may contain from one to four genera of onocleoids, consisting of five species largely in north temperate climes. The four genera: ''Matteuccia'', ''Onoclea'', ''Onocleopsis'', and ''Pentarhizidium'' may be included under the single genus ''Onoclea''.〔 Members of the family have the following characteristics, being distinguished by having strongly dimorphic fronds, with the fertile fronds different from the sterile fronds. The rhizomes are long- to short-creeping to ascending, and sometimes stoloniferous (Matteuccia and Onocleopsis). The leaves are strongly dimorphic and the petioles have two vascular bundles uniting distally into a gutter-shape. The blades are pinnatifid or pinnate-pinnatifid. The veins are free or anastomosing, lacking included veinlets. The spores are reniform, brownish to green. The sori are enclosed (sometimes tightly) by reflexed laminar margins, also with membranous, often fugacious true indusia.〔 Formerly, the two species in the genus ''Pentarhizidium'' were considered to be members of ''Matteuccia'', but genetic analysis has determined that they compose a basal sister clade to the rest of the family. This family has been determined by genetic analysis to be closely allied to the Blechnaceae, within the clade of families sometimes known as Blechnales (which includes the athyrioid ferns and asplenioid ferns as well) (this clade is often treated as part of the order Polypodiales however). ''Matteuccia struthiopteris'' was previously classified under the Dryopteridaceae, and still is by the USDA. 〔(US Department of Agriculture. Natural Resources Conservation Service. Matteuccia struthiopteris )〕 == Species == Five species, in four genera * ''Matteuccia struthiopteris'' (ostrich fern) - wide distribution including North America, Europe, and Asia * ''Onoclea sensibilis'' (sensitive fern) - North America and eastern Asia, with the American and Asian populations being recognized as distinct varieties * ''Onocleopsis hintonii'' - found in a restricted range of wet mountain canyons in southern Mexico and Guatemala; some botanists (especially Masahiro Kato) consider this to be a species of ''Matteuccia'' * ''Pentarhizidium'' * * ''Pentarhizidium orientale'' - eastern Asia as far south as the Himalayas * * ''Pentarhizidium intermedia'' - China to India 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Onocleaceae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
