Eupodium is a genus of ferns in the family Marattiaceae native to the Neotropics. Traditionally, many taxonomists have included Eupodium within the genus Marattia (along with Ptisana). However, Eupodium is distinctive among the Marattiaceae in only having one frond at a time (occasionally two), bearing awns along veins, and having stalked synangia. Molecular phylogenetic studies and morphological studies of extant and fossil taxa support the recognition of Eupodium as a lineage distinct from Marattia.[1][2][3] The genus currently has three recognized species.[4]

The basal chromosome number for this genus is unknown. The type species is Eupodium kaulfussii.

Species

The genus includes the following species:

Eupodium laeve (Sm.) Murdock
Eupodium kaulfussii (J. Sm.) J. Sm.
Eupodium pittieri (Maxon) Christenh.

gollark: Oh, I see, that APIARY literally made it into a busy loop.

gollark: Which is an amazing example of concurrency.

gollark: Except then the awful go program I use to proxy websockets consumes all of *two* cores.

gollark: The CPU usage is fine when someone is connected.
