Neolepisorus is a genus of ferns in the family Polypodiaceae, subfamily Microsoroideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I).[2]
Taxonomy
Neolepisorus was first described by Ren-Chang Ching in 1940.[1] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2019 suggested that Neolepisorus was one of a group of closely related genera in the subfamily Microsoroideae, a group the authors termed "Lepisorus sensu lato". It species were embedded in a clade in which none of the genera appeared to be monophyletic:[3]

Species
As of February 2020[update], the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World recognized the following species:[1]
- Neolepisorus fortunei (T.Moore) Li Wang
- Neolepisorus pappei (Mett. ex Kuhn) Li Wang
- Neolepisorus zippelii (Blume) Li Wang
As of February 2020[update], Plants of the World Online did not accept the genus, sinking it into Neocheiropteris,[4] although placing some of its species in Microsorum.[5]
