On the systematic position of Leptodictyum Mizushimae(Bryophyta)

Abstract: Leptodictyum mizushimae (Sakurai) Kanda (= Hygrohypnum mizushimae Sakurai), a rare East Asiatic species, known from Japan, Kuril Islands and Kamchatka, is studied by three molecular markers, including nuclear ITS, chloroplastic rps4 and mitochondrial nad5, and all of them indicate its affinity with Climaciaceae, despite lacking morphological similarity: plants are not dendroid and stem lacks any paraphyllia-like structires. A new genus, Limnohypnum is described to accomodate this species. Morphological descrip… Show more

“…Many of them have been widely used because they look conspicuous and are easily observed. The molecular phylogenetic approach to taxonomy has already revealed many cases where morphological characters have been overvalued, overturning assumptions about the importance of, for example, the "Isobryalean peristome" (Buck et al, 2000;Tsubota et al, 2002), Neckera-like undulate leaves (Olsson et al, 2011), Drepanocladus-like falcatesecund leaves with a costa (Vanderpoorten et al, 2002); Hypnum-like falcate-secund leaves without a costa (Gardiner et al, 2005;Arikava et al, 2008;Câmara et al, 2018;Schlesak et al, 2018), and a dendroid growth-form (Ignatov et al, 2014). In this paper we will try to address one more such character, the papillosity of the laminal cells.…”

“…Thus, use of gene sequence data has become rather the norm when identification of a difficult specimen is equivocal. One result of the increased use of molecular data for addressing taxonomic questions at and above the family level in bryophytes, is a lowering of the precision and consistency of morphological definitions of families or orders (Ignatov & Huttunen, ; Ignatov et al, , ; Crandall‐Stotler et al, ). Thus, the limits of taxa at these ranks, as circumscribed based on morphology, are becoming blurry.…”

“…Such is the case for the transfer of the non‐dendroid Limnohypnum Ignatov & Czernjad. from Amblystegiaceae to Climaciaceae (Ignatov et al, ); of Jaffueliobryum Thér. from Grimmiaceae to Ptychomitriaceae (Hernández‐Maqueda et al, ); of Anacamptodon from Fabroniaceae to Amblystegiaceae (Vanderpoorten et al, ); of Alsia from Cryphaeaceae to Neckeraceae (Tsubota et al, ); and of the Erpodiaceae from Hypnales to Dicranales (Frey & Stech, ; Goffinet et al, ).…”
