vascular cryptogam
Originally: a plant of the former taxonomic division Cryptogamia (Cryptogamia n.), comprising plants that have no true flowers and do not produce seeds, reproducing instead by spores, including ferns, mosses, algae, lichens, and all fungi; frequently contrasted with phanerogam. In later use: esp. (more fully vascular cryptogam) any member of this group resembling a seed plant in having a vascular system, which comprises ferns and their allies (e.g. horsetails and clubmosses); cf. non-vascular adj. 2.
