Hi Ken,

I believe I've got all the new genera added, along with the families that needed to be added. The first one is Pseudoscleropodium - correct? And we have Pleuroziaceae listed as a valid family name; is Pleurozium in a different family?

Warm regards,
Terry

Thanks Terry.

Yes it should be Pseudoscleropodium! Sorry about my typing!

I have checked on Pleurozium. Googling Pleurozium schreberi I get this which says it in Hylocomiaceae: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurozium_schreberi

Searching for that species with the family gives 91 hits with Pleuroziaceae
but 1960 hits with Hylocomiaceae, so unless you have a definite authority to refer to I would stick to its being in Hylocomiaceae,

Ken

No problem..I figured you had checked the nomenclature already, but wanted to be sure you were aware of the (probably older) family name.

Terry, I did a little further checking by googling Pleuroziaceae on the web. It seems that Pleuroziaceae is a family of liverworts, containing just one genus Pleurozia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurozia

The genus Pleurozium is a moss not a liverwort, hence it is not in that family but in Hylocomiaceae, which is a moss family.

I am amazed at two genera with such a tiny spelling difference between them and it is easy to see why that would lead to mistakes in allocating species to the right family!

Ken

Indeed, it does lend itself to confusion, but thanks for researching that one! Interesting!

Terry, one that I asked for earlier still won't accept the family.

Could you please add:

Wijkia in the family: Pylaisiadelphaceae
to the approved list,

Ken

Sorry about that - I just added Pylaisiadelphaceae to the family checklist. Please let me know if it doesn't work, okay?
