On Inflatolejeunea, Lejeunea species with eplicate perianths and Lejeunea talamancensis sp. nov. from Costa Rica (Lejeuneaceae)

Bryophytes of Atewa Forest, Eastern Region, Ghana

“…African collections formerly named L. caespitosa (e.g. sensu Jones, 1972) have been assigned to Lejeunea anisophylla (Reiner-Drehwald & Schäfer-Verwimp, 2008;Pócs, 2010).…”

Molecular and morphological evidence for a new species of liverwort, Lejeunea heinrichsii (Marchantiophyta: Lejeuneaceae) from Taveuni, Fiji

“…Lejeunea heinrichsii can be easily separated from other Asian species of Lejeunea with eplicate perianth by its autoicy. With this character combination, L. heinrichsii is morphologically closely related to L. capensis , which is common in southeastern and southern Brazil from Minas Gerais to Rio Grande do Sul, Sub‐Saharan Africa and Madagascar including Yemeni Arab Republic, and probably also from Mexico, Venezuela and Argentina (Reiner‐Drehwald & Schäfer‐Verwimp, ) and has never been reported from Asian and Pacific regions. The latter species, however, differs in the punctate cuticle and the imbricate to contiguous and broader underleaves.…”

“…The latter species, however, differs in the punctate cuticle and the imbricate to contiguous and broader underleaves. A variation in beak morphology (pronounced cylindrical or trumpet‐shaped) was described in L. capensis (Reiner‐Drehwald & Schäfer‐Verwimp, ) while the very short cylindrical shape with only 1‐2 cells length is consistent in L. heinrichsii . Furthermore, in the present study, these two species were resolved in different clades and are not closely related based on our molecular phylogenetic analyses (Fig.…”

Contribution to the knowledge of the bryophyte flora of Ecuador

“…Azuay: Pacific coast south of Guayaquil, Camacho, Hostería Kaluz between Naranjal and Machala, epiphyllous on Citrus in hotel garden, c. spor., 100 m, 2°48.6' S, 79°38.9' W, 14 A widespread but scattered neotropical species (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Colombia, Reiner-Drehwald & Goda 2000) Reiner -Drehwald & Schäfer-Verwimp (2008) clarified the relationships between Lejeunea pallescens and L. osculatiana De Not. (= Lejeunea flavicans Gottsche) the first one being concentrated in the Andes of Colombia with a few collections from Costa Rica, Venezuela and Ecuador, between 2600-3700 m, the latter one with a wider distribution from Mexico to Bolivia at altitudes between 1000-3200 m. The specimen SV 23201 from 1800 m cited in Parolly et al (2004) as Macrolejeunea pallescens from Zamora Chinchipe as well as all specimens of L. pallescens cited in Schäfer-Verwimp et al (2006) from Napo and Pichincha (from altitudes between 1800 and 2120 m) belong to L. osculatiana.…”
