The correct answer is: Cryptogams
Eichler divided the plant kingdom into two subkingdoms: Cryptogamae-plants without flowers and seeds 
Phanerogamae-plants that bear flowers and seeds.
Cryptogams are further classified into three divisions: thallophyta, bryophyta, and pteridophyta. These are spore-bearing plants and commonly called as hidden plants which reproduce by producing spores.
