The genus features both single and divided leaf species, which exhibit wide diversity in size and shape. The name "Tectaria" is derived from the Greek word 'tectum' meaning roof, which refers to the roof-like indusia, a thin membrane protecting the spores. Tectaria species are typically used as ornamental plants, but some are also known for their medicinal properties.
