Timmiellaceae is a family of haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae). It contains two genera, Luisierella and Timmiella , that were formerly place in family Pottiaceae. [1] [2]

Taxonomy

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]

Genera and species

The family contains the following genera [2] and species: [5] [6]
