Oeosporangium is a genus of small ferns in the Pteridaceae family, native to the Old World. Little is documented about its cultivation, so treat its care needs as those of similar rock-dwelling cheilanthoid ferns.
Oeosporangium is a genus of ferns in the subfamily Cheilanthoideae of the family Pteridaceae. The genus has not always been recognized. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I) it was included in Allosorus (a genus since subsumed into Aleuritopteris). It was accepted by the Checklist of the Ferns and Lycophytes of the World as of January 2020. As circumscribed there, the genus is native to the Old World.
