Taxonomic remark Basionym: Filicites sect. Pecopteris A.T. Brongniart, 1822. Doweld, 2012 proposed to conserve the name Pecopteris against Filicites, however this was rendered unnecessary when Filicites was recommended to be a rejected name by the Nomenclature Committee on Fossils, refer Herendeen, 2015. From Cleal & Thomas, 2018: When Sternberg (1825) raised this species in rank to genus, he illegitimately renamed the type species Pecopteris pennata Sternberg, 1825, but this name must be supressed as a later homotypic synonym. In the original definition of Brongniart (1822a) this name was used for both fern and seed-plant fronds. However, mainly through the separation off of species with larger pinnules such as Alethopteris Sternberg, 1825, and Callipteridium (E. Weiss) Grand'Eury, 1877 (≡ Odontopteris (Callipteridium) E.Weiss, 1870) the name has become almost exclusively used for Palaeozoic fern foliage. [details]
