Notes. – Am on g n e o t ro p i c a l Plagiochila View in CoL s p e c i e s, P. deflexirama View in CoL stands out by densely (bi)pinnate branching with branches being predominantly of the Frullania View in CoL - type, and ampliate ventral leaf bases (GRADSTEIN, 2016). Plagiochila bicaudata View in CoL is similar to P. deflexirama View in CoL in all respects. The new lectotypification of P. bicaudata View in CoL was already proposed by J. Heinrichs on an annotation label.
