SUMMARY
Macrothelypteris is a larger version of the genus Thyelypteris. If the genus is defined fairly broadly it contains 875 species. Most of the ferns in the genus are terrestrial and some are lithophytes. The bulk of the species are tropical, although there are a few species which are temperate. (Smith, 1963).
