3. ECTROPOTHECIUM Mitt. View in CoL
Ectropothecium includes about 205 species in the world, and 16 species in China ( Jia & He 2013). In the recent study, the diagnostic features of Ectorpothecium characters have been summarized as follows ( He 2019): (1) filamentous and slenderly lanceolate or foliose pseudoparaphyllia, (2) more or less asymmetric and somewhat falcate-secund, hardly falcate to even not falcate leaves, (3) weakly to moderate prorate laminal cells, (4) 1(–2) in number, large, inflated, hyaline, and thin-walled cells at the base of leaves, (5) small-sized capsules, and (6) collenchymatous exothecial cells. In the present study, we have concluded that Glossadelphus anomalus and G. falcatulus are best classifying in Ectropothecium . The detailed discussion is shown below.
