Phylogenic studies found Doodia to be embedded within the paraphyletic Blechnum as then circumscribed.[4] In 2011, Christenhusz et al. therefore reassigned Doodia species to Blechnum.[5][6] The alternative taken in the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I) is to split Blechnum into a number of smaller genera, including Doodia.[1]
As of August 2019[update], the Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World accepted the following species:[7]
