1. Class: Psilotopsida:
The members of the class Psilotopsida show close resemblance in fundamental characteristics to the Silurian and Devonian members of Rhyniopsida (e.g., Rhynia, Cooksonia), Zostero- phyllopsida (e.g., Zosterophyllum) and Trimero- phytopsida (e.g., Trimerophyton, Psilophyton). Psilotopsida includes only two living genera viz., Psilotum and Tmesipteris.
