Family Polyphysaceae (Kützing) View in CoL
The characteristic of the representatives of this family is to have either two discrete types of laterals, some sterile and others fertile, alternating along the main axis, or verticils of elongated reproductive organs. However, in modern forms, a single terminal fertile verticil called a cap is common; this last feature is called the umbrellosporate type.
