'''''Athyrium''''' ('''lady-fern''') is a genus of about 180 species of terrestrial [[fern]]s, with a [[cosmopolitan distribution]].  It is placed in the family [[Athyriaceae]], in the order [[Polypodiales]].<ref name=Smith-2006/><ref name=Christenhusz-2011/>
 
Its genus name is from Greek ''[[Privative a|a-]]'' ('without') and Latinized Greek ''[[thureos]]'' ('shield'), describing its inconspicuous [[indusium]] (sorus' covering).<ref name="Georgia">{{cite book|author1=Lloyd H.
