Polypodiaceae is a family of polypod ferns, which includes approximately 50 genera divided into several tribes containing around 1,000 species. Nearly all are epiphytes, but some are terrestrial.
Their stems range from erect to long-creeping. The fronds are entire, pinnatifid, or variously forked or pinnate. The petioles lack stipules. The scaly rhizomes are generally creeping in nature.
Polypodiaceae species are found in wet climates, most commonly in rain forests.
