Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
Two minute and sterile scraps of Pleurophascum have been seen from St (D. Glenny 9330b from Magog, Fraser Peaks area, CHR 571408 and C.D. Meurk & H.D. Wilson, s.n., 5. 3. 80, from near South Cape, CHR 574228). In both collections leaves with weakly mucronate leaf apices and slightly recurved upper margins occur, raising the possibility that St populations might differ from mainland (S) populations. The collection of well-developed material from St is required to clarify the status of Pleurophascum on that island.
In the closely-relatedPleurophascum grandiglobum of Tasmania upper leaves of fertile plants have reflexed or narrowly recurved upper margins and strongly reflexed apices. Capsules in P. grandiglobum are consistently globose and have an apical rostrum which is shorter (0.2–0.35 mm) than that of P. ovalifolium.
