Note:
this study found evidence for a close phylogenetic affinity between this species as
Microsorum scolopendria
and
M. papuanum
within a clade sister to the group of
Microsorum punctatum
; since
M. scolopendria
is the type species of
Phymatosorus
one "taxonomic solution" will be to include this genus within
Microsorum
