Vittarioideae is a subfamily of the Pteridaceae family of ferns,[1] in the order Polypodiales, class Polypodiopsida. This subfamily includes the previous families Adiantaceae (adiantoids or maidenhair ferns) and Vittariaceae (vittarioids or shoestring ferns).[2]

The following diagram, shows a likely phylogenic relationship between the Vittarioideae and other subfamilies of the Pteridaceae.[3][4]
