Woodsia is a genus of ferns in the family Woodsiaceae. Species of Woodsia are commonly known as cliff ferns.[4]:224 In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), it was the only genus in the family Woodsiaceae.[1] In 2020, Physematium was split off from Woodsia on the basis of molecular phylogenetic evidence.[5] (As of June 2023), Plants of the World Online continued to treat Physematium as a synonym of Woodsia.[6]

Species

There are about 25–30 species of the genus Woodsia. (As of June 2023), World Ferns hosted at World Plants accepted the following species:[7]

  • Woodsia alpina (Bolton) Gray – alpine woodsia
  • Woodsia andersonii (Bedd.) Christ
  • Woodsia asiatica Kiselev & Shmakov
  • Woodsia calcarea (Fomin) Shmakov
  • Woodsia cinnamomea Christ
  • Woodsia cycloloba Hand.-Mazz.
  • Woodsia glabella R.Br. – smooth cliff fern
  • Woodsia gorovoii Krestsch. & Shmakov
  • Woodsia guizhouensis P.S.Wang, Q.Luo & Li Bing Zhang
  • Woodsia hancockii Baker
  • Woodsia ilvensis (L.) R.Br. – oblong woodsia, rusty cliff fern
  • Woodsia kungiana Li Bing Zhang, N.T.Lu & X.F.Gao
  • Woodsia lanosa Hook.
  • Woodsia macrochlaena Mett. ex Kuhn
  • Woodsia macrospora C.Chr. & Maxon
  • Woodsia nikkoensis H.Ogura & Nakaike

Some hybrids are also known:[7]

  • Woodsia × gracilis (G.Lawson) Butters = W. alpina × W. ilvensis
  • Woodsia × tryonis B.Boivin = W. ilvensis × W. glabella

When the genus Physematium is accepted, × Woodsimatium abbeae is a hybrid between Woodsia ilvensis and Physematium scopulinum.[8]
