|discussion=<p>Dry plants of <i>Fontinalis novae-angliae</i> have concave leaves, but plants from fast moving streams sometimes have flat leaves with narrowly reflexed margins when dry. There are two distinct expressions of <i>F. novae-angliae</i>. The typical expression has somewhat lax plants with well-spaced, broad, moderately concave leaves. In the cymbifolium expression the plants are stiff with closely spaced, narrow, tubular-concave leaves. <i>Fontinalis howellii</i> is the only other species in the genus with tubular-concave leaves; however, its stem leaves are keeled-conduplicate.</p><!--
--><p><i>Fontinalis novae-angliae</i> has been confused with <i>F. sphagnifolia</i>, which differs in having long, tightly attenuate stem and branch apices. <i>Fontinalis dalecarlica</i> and <i>F. novae-angliae</i> have often been confused because both have firm, concave leaves. But <i>F. dalecarlica</i> is a slender species with narrow leaves (stem leaves 0.5–1.2 versus 0.7–2 mm wide) that usually have plane apical leaf margins when moist and reflexed proximal leaf margins when dry.</p>
