Taxonomic note
"Such a new combination was proposed by Hauck (1882: 98). This form differs from the autonym in its slenderer habit and in showing bisporangia instead of tetrasporangia (see also Feldmann-Mazoyer, 1941: 275, fig. 103; Feldmann, 1942: 42; Coppejans, 1983: pls. 174 and 175). This taxon, now considered as a synonym of the autonym [see Maggs & Hommersand (1993: 83)." (Cormaci & al. 2023: 346-7). - (22 November 2023) - M.D. Guiry
