Abstract – Molecular analyses have consistently evidenced the phylogenetic heterogeneity of Orthotrichum Hedw., and suggested the need to segregate the species with superficial stomata in a separate genus. A recent proposal has been made to accommodate the monoicous species with such stomata in the genus Dorcadion Adans. ex Lindb., which is, however, an illegitimate name according to the current Code of nomenclature of algae, fungi and plants. Consequently a new name is required, and the generic name Lewinskya F.Lara, Garilleti & Goffinet is proposed. New combinations are made for all the species included in the new genus. Given the long history of the genus Orthotrichum and the similarities between this genus and Lewinskya, the morphological and geographic circumscriptions of both genera are provided to define them accurately. The taxa remaining in Orthotrichum s.str. are also listed. Biogeography / Diversity / Musci / Nomenclature / Systematics INTRODUCTION Acrocarpic mosses growing on trees or rocks, with orthotropic stems, leaves with short isodiametric cells above, elongate basal cells, undifferentiated marginal cells, a mitrate calyptra and with sporangia, which upon dehiscence reveal a diplolepideous (though often variously reduced) peristome, are accommodated in the genus Orthotrichum Hedw. The genus is part of the tribe Orthotricheae Goffinet & Vitt, within the Orthotrichaceae Arnott, a highly speciose and cosmopolitan family. At the end of the last century, Goffinet & Vitt (1998) proposed a revised classification whereby the Orthotricheae included five genera (i.e., Muelleriella Dusén, Orthomitrium Lewinsky & Crosby, Orthotrichum, Stoneobryum Norris & H.Rob. and Ulota D.Mohr). Lewinsky-Haapasaari & Hedenäs (1998) subsequently * Corresponding author: francisco.lara@uam.es doi/10.7872/cryb/v37.iss4.2016.361 362 F. Lara et al. segregated O. paraguense Besch. in the new genus Sehnemobryum Lewinsky & Hedenäs. Most species of the Orthotricheae belong to either Orthotrichum or Ulota, with the remaining genera holding only one to five species (Crosby et al., 1999). Generic concepts within the tribe reflect patterns in the ornamentation of laminal cells, the precocious germination of spores (endospory), differentiation of the laminal margin, costal anatomy and architecture and distribution of the stomata (Gofffinet & Vitt, 1998; Lewinsky-Haapasaari & Hedenäs, 1998). However, both speciose genera harbor variation in these traits, most notably with Orthotrichum including species with either superficial (phaneroporous) or immersed (cryptoporous) stomata. Lewinsky (1993a) critically revised the taxonomic diversity of Orthotrichum. The circumscription of the genus continues to grow, with 45 taxa added since 1993. The species have been historically organized into subgenera and sections (e.g., Vitt, 1971). Phylogenetic inferences from morphological traits providing the basis for these infrageneric taxa suggested, however, significant homoplasy in these traits (Lewinsky-Haapasaari & Hedenäs, 1998). Furthermore, the phylogenetic significance of transformations in the generic traits appeared ambiguous, with Goffinet et al. (1998) providing the first evidence from analyzing rbcL sequences that Orthotrichum as circumscribed and diagnosed by Lewinsky (1993a) was an artificial lineage. Goffinet et al. (2004) subsequently corroborated this hypothesis based on inferences from four loci, demonstrating that a) species with superficial stomata shared a unique ancestor with Ulota, b) Muelleriella and Orthomitrium were nested among species with immersed stomata, c) Orthotrichum exiguum belonged to the tribe Zygodonteae (Schimp.) Goffinet, but that d) Stoneobryum and Sehnemobryum were indeed distinct. However, Goffinet et al. (2004) preferred to retain Orthotrichum sensu Lewinsky until the inferences could be strengthened by additional data from a more extensive sampling of taxa. Thus by 2004, the Orthotricheae included four genera: Orthotrichum, Sehnemobryum, Stoneobryum and Ulota (Goffinet & Buck, 2004). The polyphyly of Orthotrichum was repeatedly suggested by inferences from molecular data (Goffinet et al., 2007; Plášek et al., 2009, 2011; Sawicki et al., 2009, 2010, 2012; Vigalondo et al., 2016a). Sawicki et al. (2010) proposed the first systematic consequences since 2004 to reflect the phylogenetic reconstruction, and reinstated Nyholmiella Holmen & E.Warncke for O. gymnostomum Bruch ex Brid. and O. obtusifolium Brid., traditionally composing subgenus Orthophyllum Delogne (Vitt, 1971). Plášek et al. (2015) further divided Orthotrichum and segregated O. lyellii Hook. & Taylor in the new genus Pulvigera Plášek, Sawicki & Ochyra, and resurrected Dorcadion Adans. ex Lindb. to accommodate the monoicous and phaneroporous taxa of Orthotrichum. The genus Orthotrichum s.str. would thus be restricted to the cryptoporous species. Although this revised classification of the Orthotricheae settles the incongruence between phylogenetic inferences and systematic concepts, assuming that a criterion of monophyly is considered necessary (see Zander, 2013), nevertheless it invokes an illegitimate name. Consequently we propose a new name, Lewinskya gen. nov. for Dorcadion Adans. ex Lindb. sensu Plášek et al. (2015). Furthermore we provide an expanded morphological description of the genus, an assessment of its geographic distribution and a complete taxonomic circumscription with all necessary new combinations. With the proposed segregation of a significant number of species from Orthotrichum s.str., the morphological and geographic distribution of this genus needs to be revised, too. Hence we present along with the current circumscription of Orthotrichum a description of its morphological traits and distribution. Lewinskya gen. nov. 363 METHODS The characterization of morphological traits and geographic distributions is based on descriptions in Lewinsky (1993a) complemented with those from all subsequently discovered and recognized taxa (Lewinsky, 1993b, 1994; Ignatov & Lewinsky-Haapasaari, 1994; Lara et al., 1994, 1996, 1999a, 1999b, 1999c, 2000, 2006, 2007, 2009a, 2009b, 2009c, 2010; Lewinsky-Haapasaari, 1994, 1995, 1999a, 1999b; Vitt, 1994, 2014; Lewinsky-Haapasaari & Tan, 1995; Tan & Yu, 1997; Vitt & Darigo, 1997; Lewinsky-Haapasaari & Norris, 1998a, 1998b; Magill & van Rooy, 1998; Mazimpaka et al., 1999, 2000a, 2000b; Matteri, 2000; Garilleti et al., 2001, 2006a, 2006b, 2009, 2011; Ignatov et al., 2001, 2006; Allen, 2002; Goffinet, 2002; Draper et al., 2003, 2006; Akatova et al., 2004; Norris et al., 2004; Kürschner & Erdağ, 2005; Goffinet et al., 2007; Albertos et al., 2008; Medina et al., 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013; Atwood & Allen, 2009; Frahm et al., 2009; Plášek et al., 2009, 2014; Fedosov & Ignatova, 2010, 2011; Jia et al., 2011; Bosanquet & Lara 2012; Lara & Garilleti, 2014; Wang & Jia, 2014; Ellis et al., 2015a; Vigalondo et al., 2016b). Distribution areas used for listed taxa and maps follow Wijk et al. (1964). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Nomenclature and taxonomy Lindberg (1878) proposed to restore the pre-Hedwigian name Dorcadion (Adanson, 1763) for the genus Orthotrichum (Hedwig, 1801), thus creating a superfluous name. The author (Lindberg, 1878: 6) pointed this out neatly and indisputably, when he refers to the names of Adanson (1763): “All of the new ones are composed of rather heterogeneous links and therefore unnatural, with the exception of two, Sekra and Dorcadion, the former the same as Cinclidotus P.-B., the latter completely the same as Orthotrichum Hedw.” (“Af de nya äro alla sammansatta af ganska heterogena länkar och derför onaturliga, med undantag af två, Sekra och Dorcadion, det förra alldeles detsamma som Cinclidotus P.-B., det sednare fullkomligt liktydigt med Orthotrichum Hedw.”). A few pages later, Lindberg (1878: 35) created some confusion when he listed the genera that would constitute the Grimmiaceae, since using a broad concept he cited “Weissia (Ulota), Dorcadion (Orthotrichum Hedw. p. p.), ...”, which could suggest that Dorcadion is a new taxon incorporating only part of the members of Orthotrichum. However, what he did here was to indicate that under Dorcadion he included all the species of Orthotrichum as defined by Hedwig, except for those included in Weissia Ehrh. ex G. Gaertn., B.Mey. & Scherb. (Ulota D.Mohr). At that time, however, Orthotrichum already excluded the species of Ulota, given the combination U. crispa (Hedw.) Brid. established by Bridel (1818). Furthermore, Lindberg (1879), in his Musci Scandinavici, proposed two subgenera within Dorcadion, Calyptoporus and Gymnoporus (nomina nuda) that included the species with immersed and superficial stomata, respectively, that had until then been included in Orthotrichum (excluding Ulota). Therefore, we argue that Lindberg had the same concept for Dorcadion and Orthotrichum, once Ulota species were excluded. Consequently, Dorcadion is superfluous and thus illegitimate according to the Code of nomenclature of algae, fungi and plants 364 F. Lara et al. (McNeill et al., 2012), as previously indicated by Wijk et al. (1964) and Lewinsky (1993a). Since Dorcadion is an illegitimate name, it must be replaced. We propose the name Lewinskya F.Lara, Garilleti & Goffinet, in honour of the late Jette LewinskyHaapasaari, whose taxonomic work underlies much of our current knowledge and understanding of the diversity of the Orthotrichaceae. The establishment of a new genus requires the designation of a type, which ideally reflects the typical morphological features of the genus.

Bryol. 25: 276, f. 2. 2003 Distribution: Eur, AFR 1, AS 5. Within the context of the new genus, L. breviseta differs from Lewinskya speciosa in significative morphological characters, such as the short seta and the ribbed capsules. Additionally, both mosses show very different ecological preferences and distribution ranges, being L. breviseta restricted to Mediterranean environments whereas L. speciosa is a Boreal widespread species that seems to avoid climates with strong summer drought (Ellis et al., 2015b). All these divergences lead us to propose the recognition of L. breviseta at the species level.
