Résumé : |
"The nomenclature and classification of the genus Ceratodon has been dominated, historically, by the notoriously polymorphic and cosmopolitan species C. purpureus, under which some 39 infraspecific taxa currently exist. An account is given of a quantitative analysis of morphological and geographical patterns of variation within the genus, leading to a reduction in the number of currently recognised species from 24-25 to form. Included in this is a proposal to raise to specific rank C. purpureus ssp. conicus and C. purpureus f. heterophyllus. No morphological distinction was apparent between the fourth species, C. antarcticus and specimens from the Arctic presently referred to C purpureus ssp. arcticus. Under C. purpureus, three subspecies are newly defined: ssp. purpureus, ssp. stenocarpus and ssp. convolutus (comb. nov.). Lectotypes are chosen for C. purpureus, C. purpureus var. rotundifolius, C. purpureus ssp. stenocarpus, C. purpureus ssp. convolutus and C. conicus." (source : auteurs) |
