Lonchitis is a neotropical genus of ferns. It is the sole genus in the family Lonchitidaceae. At one time Lonchitis was placed in the Dennstaedtiaceae, and then transferred to the Lindsaeaceae, before being placed in its own family.[http://www.mnhn.fr/oseb/IMG/pdf/Lehtonen_et_al_2010_-_Phylogenetics_of_Lindsaeaceae.pdf Lehtonen et al.: Phylogenetics and classification of the pantropical fern family Lindsaeaceae]{{Dead link|date=March 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} in the Botanical Journal of the Linnaen Society 2010
