Type specimen is not available for analysis; in the protologue the species was distinguished based on breeding system (monoecious) and the presence of monosporangia in the secondary fascicles. In Sirodotia , it has been shown that distinguishing species based on breeding system (monoecious, dioecious or polyoecious) is not a reliable taxonomic character ( Umezaki, 1960). The presence of monosporangia may be a misinterpretation of carposporangia based on size and position.
