Entosthodon pulchellus (H.Philib.) Brugués View in CoL

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Loc. 7, 38456; Loc. 10, 38484/ A; Loc. 15, 38529; Loc. 19, 38547; Loc. 24, 38595. All c. spor.

REMARKS

All specimens referred here have a conical (or at least centrally conical and marginally flat) operculum, a mostly smooth to slightly serrate leaf margin, longly pointed leaf apex which is, however, sometimes hardly different from specimens cited under E. convexus , and variable length of costa. See also the comment under E. convexus . Frahm & Lüth (2008) firstly reported this species (as Funaria pulchella H.Philib. ) from two collections, and Mifsud (2012) added four further localities.
