genus
Physcomitridium
The generic name Physcomitridium alludes to a similarity to Physcomitrium. However, since the name Physcomitrium in turn refers to inflated and mitrate calyptrae, the name of the present genus, which has minute calyptrae of indeterminate form, seems particularly inappropriate.
