Timmiellaceae is a family of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae). It contains two genera, Luisierella and Timmiella , that were formerly place in family Pottiaceae. [1] [2]
The genera Luisierella and Timmiella have been traditionally placed in family Pottiaceae in order Pottiales. [3] However, phylogenetic analyses have found these genera to form a clade, as part of a protohaplolepidous grade of early branching lineages in Dicranidae, for which the family Timmiellaceae was erected. [2] The family is not currently assigned to an order, although it may be sister to family Distichiaceae. [2] [4]
The family contains the following genera [2] and species: [5] [6]
Pottiales is an order of mosses in the subclass Dicranidae.
Bryaceae is a family of mosses.
Dicranaceae is a family of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) in class Bryopsida. Species within this family are dioicous. Genera in this family include Dicranum, Dicranoloma, and Mitrobryum.
Leucobryaceae is a family of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) in the order Dicranales.
The Pottiaceae are a family of mosses. They form the most numerous moss family known, containing nearly 1500 species or more than 10% of the 10,000 to 15,000 moss species known.
Ditrichum is a genus of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) in the family Ditrichaceae.
Ptychomitriaceae is a family of mosses in the subclass Dicranidae.
Pseudoditrichales is an order of haplolepideous mosses in the subclass Dicranidae. It comprises two families, Pseudoditrichaceae and Chrysoblastellaceae. Pseudoditrichaceae was previously placed in Bryales, while Chrysoblastellaceae is a new family erected for Chrysoblastella, which was previously placed in Ditrichaceae.

Catoscopium is a genus of haplolepidous mosses (Dicranidae) in the monotypic family Catoscopiaceae .
Micromitrium is a genus of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) in the monotypic family Micromitriaceae . The genus Micrometrium was previously placed in family Pottiaceae in order Pottiales.
Octoblepharum is a genus of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) in the monotypic family Octoblepharaceae . The genus Octoblepharum was previously placed in family Calymperaceae.
Saelania is a genus of mosses in the monotypic family Saelaniaceae in subclass Dicranidae. The genus was previously placed in family Ditrichaceae. Saelania is named after Finnish botanist Thiodolf Saelan.
Luisierella is a genus of mosses belonging to the family Timmiellaceae.
