Metsälovisammal – Lophozia guttulata

Lophozia guttulata(Lindb. & Arnell) A.Evans

Accepted name, FinBIF master checklist

Hodgetts et al. 2020: Since Schljakov (1980), Lophozia longiflora has been used to include Lophozia guttulata, a species mostly restricted to moist dead wood habitats. Lophozia longiflora was lectotypified by Bakalin (2016). The lectotype corresponds to the concept of Müller (1954), Saukel (1985), Meinunger and Schröder (2007), Bakalin (2016) and Köckinger (2017), describing a species occurring mostly on peaty soil and in rocky habitats, but not the concept of Grolle and Long (2000), which corresponds to our Lophozia guttulata.
