Aneura is a genus of liverworts in the family Aneuraceae.
The 2016 world checklist of hornworts and liverworts listed the following species, placed into three categories. [1]
Jungermanniaceae is the namesake family of leafy liverworts. It is a group of small plants that are widely distributed. Several genera formerly included within the family are now classified in the Myliaceae or Solenostomataceae.
Lepidoziaceae is a family of leafy liverworts. It is a group of small plants that are widely distributed.
Schistochila is a genus of liverworts in the order Jungermanniales. It is the only genus in the family Schistochilaceae.
Treubia is a genus of liverworts in the family Treubiaceae. There are seven species, all of which are restricted to the southern hemisphere. Five of the species occur in Australasia and the other occurs in Chile. All species are dioicous, with separate male and female gametophytes.
Cryptothallus is a previously recognized genus of liverworts in the family Aneuraceae. The plants are small, and are white to pale green as a result of lacking chlorophyll. This feature led to the creation of a separate genus. The morphology of species assigned to Cryptothallus is very similar to that of Aneura. As a result, Karen Renzaglia in 1982 suggested that the only species then placed in the genus, Cryptothallus mirabilis, may be considered "merely as an achlorophyllous species of Aneura." Wickett and Goffinet argued the same position on the basis of sequences of nuclear, mitochondrial, and plastid DNA, and moved Cryptothallus mirabilis to Aneura. A 2010 molecular phylogenetic study confirmed the position of Cryptothallus within Aneura. This was accepted in the 2016 world checklist of hornworts and liverworts.
Solenostomataceae is a family of liverworts in the order Jungermanniales.
Lophoziaceae is a family of liverworts belonging to the order Jungermanniales.
Acrobolbaceae is liverwort family in the order Jungermanniales.
Gymnomitriaceae is a liverwort family in the order Jungermanniales.
Cephaloziaceae is a family of liverworts.
Leiomitra is a genus of liverworts in the family Trichocoleaceae.
Riccardia is a plant genus in the liverwort family Aneuraceae.
Calypogeiaceae is a family of liverworts. This type of plant is a calcifuge.
Trichocolea is a genus of liverworts belonging to the family Trichocoleaceae.
Anastrophyllaceae is a family of liverworts belonging to the order Jungermanniales.
Balantiopsidaceae is a family of liverworts belonging to the order Jungermanniales.
Cephaloziellaceae is a family of liverworts belonging to the order Jungermanniales.
Chonecoleaceae is a monotypic family of liverworts in the order Jungermanniales. It only contains the one genus Chonecolea.
Lepidolaenaceae is a family of liverworts belonging to the order Porellales.
Lepicolea is a genus of liverworts belonging to the family Lepicoleaceae.
