= Frullania ericoides (Nees) Nees View in CoL

Notes. – Frullania allionii is similar in all respects to the common, pantropical F. ericoides , a species standing out by brittle, squarrose leaves, lobules usually explanate (rarely helmet-shaped), and perianths with numerous small scales, lacinia or tubercles on the surface ( SCHUSTER, 1992). The specimen in Bryo. Levier 6443 is chosen here as the lectotype of F. allionii as it was illustrated in STEPHANI (1985: tab. 3403).
