Sexual condition synoicous. Capsule cleistocarpous or rarely dehiscing by a ring of differentiated cells distal to the equator, orange-brown, globose or slightly flattened, rarely broadly ovoid, with a short, broad apiculus; exothecial cells in 2 layers, stomates confined to distal half, sometimes absent. Spores fewer than 100, various shapes, proximal face only rarely concave, 55–83 × 37–67 µm, orange-brown.
