distribution_en:
description_en: Genus of 3 or 4 species of deciduous, terrestrial ferns found on shady banks and rocks in high rainfall areas through-out the N. hemisphere and in S.E. Asia. The pinnate to 2-pinnate or pinnatifid fronds, with pinnatifid or pinnatisect pinnae, arise at random from each erect to creeping rhizome, their fronds turning at right-angles to the light. Round sori, without protective indusia, are produced in 2 rows on the under-sides of the frond segments. Beech ferns are ideal for growing in a moist, shady border, or among rocks where the soil does not dry out.
