Orthotrichum Hedw.s.l.and Ulota Mohr s.l.are two of the most speciose genera of the xerophytic moss family Orthotrichaceae.We reconstructed the phylogeny of these two genera using three data matrices:(i)organellar gen...
Acknowledgments This work is supported by the National Nature Science Foundation of China (No. 31400188). Some important work in this paper was carried out while the first author was a visiting researcher at Botanical Museum (H) , Finnish Museum of Natural History in 2014. She is most grateful to the directors, Marko Hyvarinen, and the Senior Curator of Bryo- phytes, Sinikka Piippo, for giving her this opportunity. Xiaolan He and Yu Sun are gratefully acknowledged for their help in solving many problems in her life and work during this year. All staff members at the Botanical Museum are thanked for their help and friendliness during her stay. Special thanks to Timo Koponen for the scholarship from Finnish Bryological Society, and Teuvo Ahti for translating the handwritten collection informalion on historical specimens. The first author also thanks the Curator of Bryophytes in BM (Len Ellis), the director (Arne Anderberg) of Botany and Collections Manager (Jens Klackenberg) in S, and the Curator (Catherine Rausch) of Bryology and Lionel Kervran in PC for their support and cooperation during her short work at these three herbaria. We thank the curators at B, BM, DUKE, E, H, JE, M, MICH, NY, PC and S for the loans of specimens that made this work possible. Also we are very grateful to Bernard Goffinet and Johannes Enroth for helpful com- ments and careful English correction on the manuscript. We thank MeiZhi Wang and Ning-Ning Yu for SEM technical assistance. The stipend to live abroad was supplied by the China Scholarship Council.
Twenty-three species of Ulota from South and Central America have previously been reported.A revision of the species suggests that number should be reduced to thirteen(U.billbuckii,U.fuegiana,U.germana,U.larrainii,U.l...
