“…Plagiochila partially resembled those obtained by Patzak et al (2016) and Renner et al (2017), and the most of internal node still stayed without support. The newly sequenced Plagiochila specimen formed the basal branch to the clade of Circumboreal and East Asian Plagiochila (with the only exception for Java-Sumatra P. korthalsiana Molk.…”

A new species of Plagiochila is described from cool-temperate Ussuri taiga zone in the Russian Far East using integrative morphological and molecular-genetic ap proach. Plagiochila sichotensis Bakalin et Vilnet sp. nov. (sect. Plagiochila) is charac terized by totally entire leaves, relatively small size and, particularly, very large midleaf cells reaching 40-60 µm wide in the leaf middle. The latter feature distin guishes the new species from all known taxa of the genus and, among regional ta xa, somewhat similar to the not evolutionary related Mylia. This epixylous taxon seems to be confined in its distribution to the low to middle elevation of moun tains in the southern Sikhote-Alin Mts. The description, illustrations and dis cus sion on the new species are provided.

“…L.Söderstr. & Váňa and Liochlaena subulata (A.Evans) Schljakov but these species produce only 1-2-celled gemmae on slightly bilobed, spoon-shaped (Mesoptychia) or unlobed (Liochlaena) leaves (Paton 1999). Xenochila also matches the other characters of Jungermanniaceae listed by Shaw et al (2015) yet stands out by the presence of a somewhat plagiochiloid, laterally compressed perianth.…”

Xenochila is a monospecific genus that has not yet been included in molecular phylogenies. Based on morphology it has been aligned with Plagiochilaceae. A chloroplast DNA phylogeny places Xenochila within Jungermanniaceae in a robust sister relationship with the monospecific genus Delavayella. Though outwardly disparate in form, Delavayella and Xenochila share the presence of multicellular parenchymatous propagules forming singly from leaf margins of specialized gemmiparous shoots, a papillose gametophyte surface, nearly undifferentiated stem cells, absence of underleaves and bracteoles, weakly to distinctly bifid female bracts that are slightly larger than the leaves, and long cylindrical perianths with a dentate mouth. With the addition of Xenochila, Jungermanniaceae include the genera Delavayella, Eremonotus, Jungermannia, Liochlaena and Mesoptychia.

“…In Fortuna, Plagiochila is the only genus in this family (Figure 5.5d). It is considered monophyletic with the exclusion of P. radiculosa, which was transferred to a new genus (Cryptoplagiochila gen. nov.; Patzak et al, 2016). Plagiochila is the largest genus of liverworts (Inoue, 1984;Gradstein, 2001).…”

The Fortuna Forest Reserve and adjacent upland areas of the Palo Seco Reserve in western Panama support some of the most extensively studied lower and premontane tropical forests in the world. The forests of Fortuna are among the most diverse in Central America and are therefore of exceptional significance for the preservation of regional biodiversity. This volume brings together more than 50 years of research on the climate, geology, soils, and major plant groups of Fortuna. Spanning the Continental Divide at around 1,000 m above sea level, some parts of the reserve receive more than 6,000 mm of annual rainfall, although there is considerable variation in cloud cover and seasonality. Soil fertility also varies markedly, reflecting the complex regional volcanic geology. The resulting gradients of climate and fertility across the reserve shape the composition, structure, and diversity of plant communities. A network of 12 one-hectare plots at Fortuna contains more than 400 species of trees greater than 5 cm diameter at breast height and reveals extensive compositional turnover across the reserve. One tree species, Oreomunnea mexicana, forms monodominant stands in otherwise species-rich forests, while forests on extremely infertile soils are dominated by the canopy palm Colpothrinax aphanopetala and include the tropical conifer Podocarpus oleifolius. There are also almost 400 species of bryophytes, almost 300 species of ferns and lycophytes, 31 species of palms, 80 species of bromeliads, and more than 200 species of orchids. Many species of ectomycorrhizal fungi identified from fruiting bodies are new to science. Overall, results from Fortuna highlight the remarkable diversity of plants that occur in montane forests and the extent to which their communities are structured by gradients of climate and soil fertility. The chapters in this volume provide a foundation for further research and exploration in this fascinating region.
