Explanation

Megaphylls, which are leaves with a complex network of veins and a wide blade, are typical of both ferns (Pteridophytes) and seed plants (Spermatophytes). Lycophytes, on the other hand, have microphylls with a single unbranched vein. Therefore, both ferns and seed plants exhibit megaphylls.
