H.A.Mill. and H. sendtneri (Nees) Lindb. are described and illustrated from West Siang District of Arunachal Pradesh in the eastern Himalaya, India. This constitutes the first record ofH. ramosus in Indian bryoflora. It is easily distinguished from hitherto known Indian species of the genus by orange brown plants having falcate leaves with acute leaf lobes 23–40 cells wide at base, up to 8 cells uniseriate towards apex, strongly expanded basal leaf lamina on dorsal side, and strong grooved vitta. Identification key to the Indian species of the genus is provided and its distribution in the country is discussed. The genus Herbertus Gray is represented in India by presence of three species and one subspecies of the genus eight species and one subspecies, viz. H. aduncus (Dicks.)

  • Mass Occurrence of the Liverwort Herbertus Sendtneri in a Glacial

Their identification can be difficult due to modification of morphological traits induced by the aquatic environment. Here we deal with a submerged population of the liverwort genus Herbertus from a glacial lake at 4120 m the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy, Colombia. The aquatic plants, which stand out by dwarf statue and obtuse leaf tips, had been identified asH. oblongifolius, a rare taxon described from Brazil and recently placed in synonymy of the widespread and variable H. sendtneri based on morphology. Molecular analysis confirmed that the aquatic plants belong to H. sendtneri. The resemblance of the aquatic plants to small branches of H. sendtneri suggests that they might represent a juvenile phenotype. The aquatic plants probably originated from a rock-inhabiting population, which dispersed into the lake by means of vegetative reproduction via caducous branches or became washed into the lake.

  • Species Fact Sheet
    SPECIES FACT SHEET Common Name: Common scissorleaf, red prongwort (Edwards 2003) Scientific Name: Herbertus aduncus (Dicks.) S.F. Gray Division: Marchantiophyta (incorrectly called Hepatophyta in U.S. government taxon databases (e.g., ITIS 2008); see Stotler and Crandall-Stotler 2008) Class: Jungermanniopsida Order: Jungermanniales Family: Herbertaceae Taxonomic Note: This species has been treated under a number of different names, some of them synonyms and some misapplied names of other species. According to Schofield (2007) the taxon present in our area is subsp. aduncus, endemic to Pacific North America. Technical Description: "Plants brownish to red-brown, sometimes dark green or wine-red, in polsters or turfs. Stems erect to recling, sometimes unbranched or irregularly few-branched but sometimes with numerous flagelliferous branches, main stems 1--10 cm. Leaves asymmetrically or symmetrically 2- lobed with lobes narrow, 4--7 times as long as wide, vitta strong, extending to middle of leaf or beyond, of elongate cells, leaves imbricate to second postically, occasionally somewhat squarrose. Sexual condition dioicous; androecia intercalary, perigonial leaves less deeply lobed than most leaves, not falcate; gynoecia terminal, with innovations becoming lateral with continued growth; perianth ovate, narrowed to mouth, divided into six lanceolate lobes." (Schofield 2007) Distinctive characters: The three rows of bifid leaves make this genus unmistakable among liverworts; the slender lobes make it more likely to be taken for a moss. Similar species: Only one other species of the genus in the region, H. dicranus. This species is slightly smaller than H. dicranus; has more deeply divided leaves (greater than 0.7) which are parallel sided to the base; and has underleaves which are little different from the lateral leaves.

It is made up of a newly sequenced, assembled and annotated organellar genomes of two European specimens, which revealed the structure typical for liverworts, but also provided new insights into its microevolution. The plastome of N. curvifolia is the second smallest among photosynthetic liverworts, with the shortest known inverted repeats. Moreover, it is the smallest liverwort genome with a complete gene set, since two smaller genomes of Aneura mirabilis and Cololejeunea lanciloba are missing six and four protein-coding genes respectively. The reduction of plastome size in leafy liverworts seems to be mainly impacted by deletion within specific Citation: Sawicki, J.; Krawczyk, K.; region between psbA and psbD genes.

However, none of the recent reviews include a detailed characterization of all molecular markers used in bryophyte phylogenetics. Here we provide an overview of the history and current state of marker utilization, including coding and non-coding sequence markers from all three genomes as well as fingerprinting approaches. The molecular architecture and evolutionary peculiarities, as well as practical aspects such as amplification and sequencing strategies, are outlined for the DNA sequence markers, with a focus on the most commonly employed regions. Their phylogenetic utility and potential for solving some of the remaining, pressing questions in bryophyte phylogeny, as well as their suitability for molecular species identification by DNA barcoding, are discussed. Key words: Bryophytes, DNA barcoding, mitochondrial DNA, molecular markers, nuclear DNA, plastid DNA, phylogenetics Introduction During the last two decades, analyses of molecular data have had a major impact on our understanding of plant evolution and relationships on all taxonomic levels, from the deep nodes separating the major plant groups to species and populations.
