Box 7, FI-00014 University of Helsinki, Finland Received 23 Nov. 2006, revised version received 8 Feb. 2007, accepted 8 Feb. 2007 He-Nygrén, X. 2007: Multi-gene phylogeny supports single origin of jungermannioid perigynium. — Ann. Bot. Fennici 44: 450–462. Within the leafy liverworts, the evolution of the perigynium, the stem-derived struc- ture that protects the developing sporophytes, has been understood as merely a paral- lelism, and families that have this feature have been placed to various suborders. The present study suggests a single origin of the perigynium in the leafy liverworts and the presence of perigynium being a synapomorphy for the suborder Jungermanniineae. The phylogenetic analyses were conducted using thirty-four leafy liverworts including twelve genera bearing a perigynium, and sequence data for rbcL, rps4, trnL-F cpDNA and 26S nrDNA. Within the Jungermanniineae three monophyletic lineages are recog- nized: the Acrobolbaceae lineage, the Trichotemnomaceae–Balantiopsidaceae lineage, and the lineage consisting of Jungermanniaceae and its closest related Gymnomi- triaceae, Delavayellaceae, Geocalycaceae s. stricto, Antheliaceae, Calypogeiaceae and Gyrothyraceae. The long branches of the latter three families indicate that they are more isolated from a common jungermannioid ancestor. The family Jungermanniaceae is resolved as paraphyletic and its circumscription and relationships require further study.

These partnerships are thought to have propelled plant terrestrialisation some 500 million years ago and today they play major roles in ecosystem functioning. It has long been known that bryophytes harbour, in their living tissues, fungal symbionts, recently identified as belonging to the three mycorrhizal fungal lineages Glomeromycotina, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. Latest advances in understanding of fungal associations in bryophytes have been largely driven by the discovery, nearly a decade ago, that early divergent liverwort clades, including the most basal Haplomitriopsida, and some hornworts, engage with a wider repertoire of fungal symbionts than previously thought, including endogonaceous members of the ancient sub-phylum Mucoromycotina.

An index of published names of liverworts and hornworts between 2015 and 2016 is provided as part of a continued effort in working toward maintaining an updated world checklist of these groups. The list herein includes 64 higher taxon names, 225 specific names, 35 infraspecific names, two infrageneric autonyms and 21 infraspecific autonyms for 2015 and 2016, including also names of fossils and invalid and illegitimate names. Thirty-three older names omitted in the earlier indices are included. Key words: Liverworts, hornworts, index, nomenclature, fossils, new names Introduction Under the auspices of the Early Land Plants Today project, there has been a strong community-driven effort attempting to address the critical need to synthesize the vast nomenclatural, taxonomic and global distributional data for liverworts (Marchantiophyta) and hornworts (Anthocerotophyta) (von Konrat et al. 2010a). These endeavors, building on decades of previous efforts, were critical in providing the foundation to develop a working checklist of liverworts and hornworts worldwide published in 2016 (Söderström et al.
