By K. R. Spore (1962 later revised in 1975)
- using Reimer’s classification. Spore divided the division Pteridophyta into 6 classes – Psilopsida, Psilotopsida, Lycopsida, Sphenopsida, Pteropsida and Progymnospermopsida.
Division: Pteridophyta Class: Sphenopsida Order: Equisetales Family: Equisetaceae

By Stewart and Rothwell (1993)
- Divided the kingdom into two divisions: Division Tracheophyta and Division Angiospermophytina.
Kingdom IV: Plantae Division: Tracheophyta (vascular plants) Class: Sphenopsida Order: Equisetales

By Taylor and Taylor (1993) –
Classified Pteridophytes into six broad headings namely:
Early vascular plants, lycopods, sphenophytes,
early fern like plants, true fern, and
progymnosperms on the basis of geological
occurrence and evolutionary aspects.

Family Equisetaceae
- Perennial plants, homosporous, small to large, terrestrial, aquatic or in shallow water. (Libing & Turland, 2013; Bhattacharya, et al. 2011b; Steenis & Pertanian, 1963).
- It has a hollowed stem with nodes and internodes. The lower internode is often blackish brown with silica turbecles on epidermis (Libing and Turland, 2013; Bold et al., 1987).

Leaves are reduced or small, scalelike and arranged in whorl (Libing & Turland, 2013Steenis & Pertanian, 1963).

Sporangiophore :
peltate, scalelike,
forming terminal strobili,
Strobili are conelike
Spores are homosporous, globose,
(Libing and Turland, 2013; Bold et al., 1987).

Genera Equisetum
Stomata are scattered in the furrows of the stem.
Leaves are blunt.
Strobili borne on chlorophyllous stems and not pointed.
