Macromitrium asperulum Mitt.

J. Hattori Bot. Lab. 59:406, 1985
IN Mitten's Protologue, 5 collectors are listed. 5 species
These are represented on this sheet.
are represented. They are
Lawrence (Tasmania) = archeri
Gunn (Tasmania) = archeri
Stephenson (N. Zeal) = poor material, probably
ligulaefolium
Knight (N. Zeal) = submacrocarpum (=erosulum)
Lyall (loc.?) = gracile.
Now considering this situation. I select the
Lawrence specimen as the Lectotype, as it is
from Tasmania, fits Mitten's description, and
his with it a drawing by Mitten. Jan, 1982, D. H. Vitt
