|discussion=<p><i>Encalypta rhaptocarpa</i> is widely distributed in the northern part of the flora area. It is somewhat similar to <i>E. alpina</i>, but differs in leaf shape and has a much longer excurrent costa, a peristome, and an entire or erose base on the calyptrae. <i>Encalypta rhaptocarpa</i> could be confused also with <i>E. vittiana</i> by the strongly ribbed and red color on the capsule, however <i>E. vittiana</i> has a shorter awn and fringed calyptrae. The peristome of <i>E. rhaptocarpa</i> generally presents as single row of reddish, broadly lanceolate teeth. Careful examination of some specimens reveals a preperistome of very short, stubby projections ringing the outside of the main teeth.</p>
