Remarks.

L. gercinoi was found on marginal rocks of small streams, from 1080-1445 m a.s.l. Environmental characterization: Water temperature 10.0-16.1 °C; dissolved oxygen 8.1-9.9 mg.l-1; pH 5; slow to fast flowing; partial canopy (about 50-70% covered). The species was found in PARNASO (Rio de Janeiro State), PESM ( São Paulo State) extending the geographical records to northernmost. Low altitudinal specificity (IndVal: 0.19; p = 0.2).
