Genus: Marattiopsis SCHIMPER 1869

Type: Marattiopsis crenulata LUNDBLAD 1950 , typ. cons. prop. ( Bomfleur et al. 2013).

D i s c u s s i o n. Earlier records of Triassic and Jurassic members of the Marattiaceae were described under the name Marattiopsis SCHIMPER or the recent genus Marattia SW. s.l. However, the latter genus in its earlier sense has been identified as polyphyletic ( Murdock 2008) and therefore subdivided into three genera Marattia SW s. s., Ptisana MURDOCK and Eupodium (J. SM.) HOOKER. Due to this fact Bomfleur et al. (2013) reintroduced the genus Marattiopsis SCHIMPER for the fossil material which could not be assigned unequivocally to either Marattia , Ptisana or Eupodium .
