Some systems use a higher rank for a more broadly defined taxon of lycophytes that includes some extinct groups more distantly related to extant lycophytes, such as the zosterophylls. For example, Kenrick & Crane (1997) use the subdivision Lycophytina for this purpose, with all extant lycophytes falling within the class Lycopsida. [ 9 ]
The lycophytes, when broadly circumscribed, are a group of vascular plants that include the clubmosses.

Using the narrow circumscription of Lycopodium, in which it is one of nine genera in the subfamily Lycopodioideae, the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World recognized the following species as of June 2024: [1] Lycopodium clavatum L. – stag's-horn clubmoss; subcosmopolitan; Lycopodium diaphanum (P.Beauv.) Sw. – Tristan da Cunha
Pteridophytes (ferns and lycophytes) are free-sporing vascular plants that have a life cycle with alternating, free-living gametophyte and sporophyte phases that are independent at maturity. The body of the sporophyte is well differentiated into roots, stem and leaves. The root system is always adventitious. The stem is either underground or ...
A proposed phylogeny of the vascular plants after Kenrick and Crane 1997 [16] is as follows, with modification to the gymnosperms from Christenhusz et al. (2011a), [17] Pteridophyta from Smith et al. [18] and lycophytes and ferns by Christenhusz et al. (2011b) [19] The cladogram distinguishes the rhyniophytes from the "true" tracheophytes, the ...
In plant anatomy and evolution a microphyll (or lycophyll) is a type of plant leaf with one single, unbranched leaf vein. [1] Plants with microphyll leaves occur early in the fossil record, and few such plants exist today.
The lymphatic system plays a major role in the body's immune system, as the primary site for cells relating to adaptive immune system including T-cells and B-cells. Cells in the lymphatic system react to antigens presented or found by the cells directly or by other dendritic cells.
