    The class Filicineae includes ferns and fern-like plants that reproduce through spores carried by water rather than seeds, have large complex leaves, and have independent gametophyte and sporophyte generations that differ in size and shape. This class contains the living orders of Marattiales, Ophioglossales, and Filicales as well as the extinct order Coenopteridales. The sporangium is located at the tips of the axis and has an undifferentiated central wall and sterile columella, while the plant body is an axis without roots.

    CLASS FILICINEAE

    A group of plants that belong to the Pteropsida family and are similar to ferns in that they do
    not produce seeds, have large, often complex leaves, sperms that must be carried by water,
    and a well-developed generational cycle that typically consists of independent gametophytes
    and sporophytes that frequently differ significantly in size and shape. This group includes the
    living members of the orders Marattiales, Ophioglossales, and Filicales as well as the extinct
    order Coenopteridales.
    The sporangium is on the tips of the axis, has a massive, undifferentiated wall, and has a
    central sterile columella. The plant body is an axis without roots.
