Determined name:
Wijkia extenuata (Brid.) H.A.Crum
Determiner:
Allan Fife
Identification date:
2007-10 (Verbatim: October 2007)
Preferred name:
Wijkia extenuata (Brid.) H.A.Crum
Division:
Bryophyta
Class:
Bryatae
Family:
Sematophyllaceae
Identification type:
Confirmation
Note:
Branch leaves strongly toothed; laminal cells porose and papillose abaxially. I think this is an instructive specimen because it has all the mocroscopic characteristics of "representative" W. extenuata, but the plants are much branched and the specimen appears to consist of primarily branches. Thus it is transitional between "representative" material and what I term the "branch-only" form.
