Molecular phylogeny and morphological reconstructions of Plagiochilaceae (Jungermanniopsida) with hypotheses on biogeography and divergence times [PDF]
Plagiochilaceae gehören mit etwa 500 Arten, deren überwältigende Mehrheit der Gattung Plagiochila zugeordnet wird, zu den größten Familien der beblätterten Lebermoose. Obwohl Mitglieder der Familie weltweit, vom tiefen Süden bis in den hohen Norden, auftreten, sind die meisten Arten auf die feuchten Tropen beschränkt.In dieser Arbeit wurden drei ...

Radula subg. Radula in Australasia and the Pacific (Jungermanniopsida)
Seven species belonging to Radula subg. Radula are accepted for Australasia. Radula oreopsis M.A.M.Renner is described as new, while R. kurzii, R. multiflora, R. reflexa and R. sharpii are excluded from the region. Molecular and morphological data provide evidence suggesting that the broad species concepts recently applied to subg.

Three’s a crowd: a revision of the monotypic family Goebeliellaceae (Porellales: Jungermanniopsida).
Three species of Goebeliella are here recognized on morphological evidence. The three species can be distinguished by a range of qualitative and quantitative characters, including width of the hyaline leaf-border, leaf lobe cell wall thickening and wall internal structure, horn shape and anatomy, and female bract shape and conformation.

Pictolejeunea levis, a new species of Lejeuneaceae (Jungermanniopsida) from Cuba
Abstract Pictolejeunea levis, a new species of Lejeuneaceae found in N.E. Cuba, is described and illustrated. The species stands out within Pictolejeunea on account of its smooth leaf cells and the presence of ocelli on dorsal and ventral epidermal cells of the stem. Differences between this and the other four known species in the genus are discussed.

Lejeunea Subelobata and Lejeunea Drummondii (Jungermanniopsida) in Australasia
Abstract Lejeunea subelobata Carrington & Pearson has been regarded as a synonym of L. drummondii Taylor, but the two species differ in patterns of variation in lobule morphology, shapes of the gynoecial bracteole, female bract underleaf and vegetative underleaves; in stem anatomy, and ecology.

Allopolyploid speciation of Calypogeia sphagnicola (Jungermanniopsida, Calypogeiaceae) based on isozyme and DNA markers [PDF]
Calypogeia sphagnicola is one of nine species of the genus Calypogeia known in Europe. Occurrence of the species is closely connected with peat bogs. Nowadays, two forms of this species are distinguished—C. sphagnicola f. sphagnicola and C. sphagnicola f. paludosa. The results of the present study, based on two classes of markers—isozymes and sequences

Recent findings established the Albian-Cenomanian amber of Myanmar (Burmese amber) as an important source of Mesozoic cryptogams. Here, we describe an inclusion within Burmese amber as Protofrullania cornigera gen. et sp. nov. in the extant family Frullaniaceae (Porellales, Jungermanniopsida).

Two new species of Acromastigum (Lepidoziaceae: Jungermanniopsida) from Queensland, Australia
As a result of fieldwork on Cape York Peninsula, and ongoing revision of type specimens in lieu of the recent revision of Australian Acromastigum, two new species are described. Acromastigum carcinum represents a newly discovered species, currently known only from one location within the Jardine River National Park. The lowland and tropical monsoonal
