Description

Taxilejeunea tenuiplica Steph., Sp. Hepat. 5: 480. 1914, syn. nov.

Holotypus: ECUADOR. Prov. Morona Santiago: Gualaquiza, “ in silva secus rivum Gualaquiza ”, s.d., Allioni s.n. [Bryo. Levier 6647] (G [G000047597]!).

= Lejeunea flava (Sw.) Nees

Notes. – Lejeunea flava is widely distributed in tropical and warm-temperate regions of the world and distinguished by ovate-oblong leaves with rounded tips, leaf cells with conspicuous trigones, ± longer than wide underleaves with a cordate base, and gynoecia frequently two in a row on short branches (e.g., SCHUSTER, 1980). Stephani’s description of Taxilejeunea tenuiplica adds another name to the long list of synonyms of L. flava.
