|discussion=<p><i>Drepanocladus aduncus</i> is most likely to be confused with 2. <i>D. polygamus</i>; the differences between these two are discussed with the latter. <i>Drepanocladus aduncus</i> is frequently also confused with <i>Sarmentypnum</i> or <i>Warnstorfia</i> (Calliergonaceae) species, but the latter frequently have red colors when growing in exposed habitats, whereas <i>D. aduncus</i> never becomes red. Rhizoid initials are almost invariably found near the apex of at least some leaves of most <i>Sarmentypnum</i> and <i>Warnstorfia</i> species (rare only in <i>S. trichophyllum</i>); leaf-borne initials are never found in <i>Drepanocladus</i>.</p><!--
--><p>Because <i>Drepanocladus aduncus</i> is variable in habit, several taxa have been segregated from this species. The phenotypes most frequently recognized at the species level were small plants with short laminal cells and weak costae called D. polycarpus, large plants with long laminal cells and strong costae called D. aquaticus or D. stagnatus, and intermediate plants called <i>D. aduncus</i>. Specimens with acute or sometimes obtuse leaf apices were called D. simplicissimus or Calliergidium bakeri, but these sometimes have typical <i>D. aduncus</i> leaves in some parts of the stems, and typical D. simplicissimus leaves in other parts. The studied two isosyntypes of <i>Hypnum</i> kneiffii <i></i>var.<i> filiforme</i> S. Berggren consist of the species <i>D. aduncus</i>, <i>D. sordidus</i>, and <i>Scorpidium cossonii</i>.</p>
