In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), the genus has three species. {{As of|2020|February}}, the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World placed all three in a more broadly circumscribed genus Selliguea:

Polypodiopteris brachypodia (Copel.) C.F.Reed
Polypodiopsis colorata (Copel.) Copel.
Polypodiopsis proavita (Copel.) Copel.
