Discusión taxonómica
Pecluma consimilis is distinct by its brown stipes, comose rhizome scales, reduced proximal pinnae, and evenly distributed abaxial trichomidia, without hairs in an oblong patch around the sori. Most Mexican specimens of P. consimilis differ from P. ptilodon in bearing minute hairs on the sporangial capsules; however, this character is not completely reliable, as a few specimens of P. consimilis appear to lack hairs and a few specimens of P. ptilodon have hairs on the sporangia.
Two varieties of P. consimilis were recognized by Evans (1968), but the non-typical one, var. pastazensis, has since been elevated to species rank [Pecluma pastazensis (Hieron.) R. C. Moran; Nordic J. Bot. 15: 58. 1995] and is confined to Colombia and Ecuador.
