| description | Based on the review of herbarium material and specialized literature, as well as recollection of botanical specimens, we obtained information about the species richness, municipal distribution, vegetation type and altitudinal range of epiphytic ferns and lycophytes that occur in the state of Veracruz, Mexico. We recorded 11 families, 33 genera and 173 species with at least one herbarium voucher, and 23 cited in the literature. The families with highest species number were Polypodiaceae, Dryopteridaceae and Hymenophyllaceae, whereas the genera with most taxa were Polypodium, Asplenium, Trichomanes and Elaphoglossum. Most plants are distributed in cloud forest, tropical evergreen forest and oak forest, in an altitudinal range from 751 to 1750 m. |

Con base en la revisión de material de herbario y literatura especializada, así como en la recolección de ejemplares botánicos, obtuvimos la información correspondiente a la riqueza, distribución por municipio, tipo de vegetación e intervalo altitudinal de los helechos y licofitos epífitos que habitan en el estado de Veracruz. Se registraron para el área de estudio 11 familias, 33 géneros, 173 especies con al menos un ejemplar de respaldo y 23 citadas en la literatura. Las familias mejor representadas a nivel específico fueron Polypodiaceae, Hymenophyllaceae y Dryopteridaceae, mientras que los géneros con mayor número de taxa fueron Polypodium, Asplenium, Elaphoglossum y Trichomanes. La mayoría de las plantas se distribuyen en los bosques mesófilo de montaña, tropical perennifolio y de Quercus, en un intervalo altitudinal que va de los 751 a los 1750 m.
