The large and widespread tropical family Lindsaeaceae is represented in New Zealand by just two genera (Lindsaea and Odontosoria) and four species. The three species of Lindsaea are indigenous and all have a predominantly western distribution in New Zealand. Lindsaea viridis is the only endemic species, occurring in dark, wet forest from Great Barrier Island to the central Ruahine Ranges in the North Island, and in coastal areas of Marlborough, Nelson and Westland in the South Island. Lindsaea trichomanoides and L. linearis both also occur in Australia. In New Zealand, L. trichomanoides is a terrestrial forest species widespread in western parts of both islands from Te Paki to Stewart Island, whilst L. linearis occurs on poor soils under scrub or in grassland and sedgeland, with centres of distribution in Northland and Auckland, from north-west Nelson to Wellington, and in the far south of the South Island and Stewart Island. Odontosoria chinensis is a casual species recorded once from Kerikeri.
All members of the family in New Zealand are terrestrial ferns with short- to long-creeping rhizomes. They are distinguished by their marginal or submarginal sori that tend to elongate around the edges of the lamina, protected by indusia that are attached at their bases and open towards the margin. Species of Lindsaea are also characterised by their red-brown or purple-brown stipes and rachises that are mostly glabrous.
