Plagiothecium denticulatum var. obtusifolium

Plagiothecium denticulatum var. obtusifolium(Turner) Moore

Accepted name, MR.1

The taxon is dubious according to Hedenäs (2014) but is included in the Checklist of European bryophytes (Hodgetts 2015; Hodgetts et al. 2020). Specimens in other Finnish herbaria besides OULU have not been checked and even specimens presented here are uncertain. The taxon is thought to have a northern distribution.
