As the result of ongoing studies of the fern flora of Colombia, we here present 14 taxa of the scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae) that are either new to science (Cyathea andaquiensis, C. callejasii, C. cardenasii, C. catenata, C. coloradoana, C. kessleriana, C. pacis, C. pholidota, C. rengifoi, C. rodriguezii, C. tejedoris, C. toroi) or newly recognized (Cyathea boconensis). For Alsophila crassa, the new name C. clandestina is chosen and an updated description is given.
