Protolophozia longiflora (Herzog) L.Söderstr. et Vá ň a, comb. nov.

Basionym:— Orthocaulis longiflorus Herzog, Rev. Bryol. Lichénol. 23: 32 ( Herzog 1954). Type:— CHILE. Westpatagonien: Pte. Puyuhuapi, Rio Ventisquero, G.H. Schwabe n.22/b (holotype JE!). Note:— Orthocaulis longiflorus is a long forgotten taxon only mentioned, as Lophozia anomala , and briefly discussed by

Schuster (2002). Study of the type shows no major difference from Lophozia (Protolophozia) gymnocoleopsis based

on the description in Schuster (2002) except for a larger proportion of 3-lobed leaves than described for the latter. Leaves are twice as long as wide, subtransverse and shallowly 2-3-lobed. Lobes obtuse to rounded. Male bracts tristichous. Branching lateral-intercalary. The two shoots with perianths in the type specimen are in very bad shape and almost without any leaves.
