Rhizoglossum is a genus of fern in the family Ophioglossaceae. Its only species is Rhizoglossum bergianum, native to the Cape Provinces of South Africa.[1] The species was first described, as Ophioglossum bergianum, by Carl Presl in 1825,[2] and transferred by Diederich von Schlechtendal to his new genus Rhizoglossum in 1845.[1] Some sources retain the species in Ophioglossum.[3]
