Descriptions
Sicut generis sectio typica, sed sporae, suballantoideae.
SPECIES HOLOTYPICA: Plectania campylospora (Berk. in Hook.) Nannf., comb. nov., basionym: Peziza campylospora Berk in Hook., Bot. Antarctic Voy., Part II, Fl. Novae-Zeland. 2: 200, 1855.
A probable synonym of this section is Gloeocalyx Mass. There is perhaps only one valid species with curved spores.
Plectania rhytidia (Berk. in Hook.) Nannf. Korf, comb. nov., basionym: Peziza rhytidia Berk. in Hook., Bot. Antarctic Voy., Part II, Fl. Novae-Zeland. 2: 200. 1855;
also several other species with transversely furrowed spores that are being worked out by Prof. Nannfeldt, including Urnula platensis Speg. which surely belongs here. Transfer of these species awaits his further studies. Sarcosoma turbinatum Wakef. with longitudinally furrowed spores may possibly belong in this section.
