Abstract
Abstract. Gaolejeunea was previously known as a monospecific genus endemic to China. Specimens of an undescribed species belonging to the genus were recently found in Singapore. Critical assessments of morphological characters and phylogenetic analyses based on genetic sequence data of three regions (trnL-F, rbcL, nrITS) unequivocally confirmed and supported its recognition as a new and second species of Gaolejeunea. Gaolejeunea hoi sp. nov. is here fully described and illustrated. The new species is characterized by its faintly Allorgella-type marginal denticulations, the ental hyaline papilla attached to the apical margin, the bracteoles present only at the base of each androecium, gynoecia with innovation(s), perianth with wing-shaped lateral keels.
期刊介绍:
The Bryologist is an international journal devoted to all aspects of bryology and lichenology, and we welcome reviews, research papers and short communications from all members of American Bryological and Lichenological Society (ABLS). We also publish lists of current literature, book reviews and news items about members and event. All back issues of the journal are maintained electronically. The first issue of The Bryologist was published in 1898, with the formation of the Society.
Author instructions are available from the journal website and the manuscript submission site, each of which is listed at the ABLS.org website.
All submissions to the journal are subject to at least two peer reviews, and both the reviews and the identities of reviewers are treated confidentially. Reviewers are asked to acknowledge possible conflicts of interest and to provide strictly objective assessments of the suitability and scholarly merit of the submissions under review.
