Plants medium-sized to very large, green, yellowish, brownish, or sometimes red. Stems distichously or radially branched, sometimes nearly simple; hyalodermis present or absent, inner cortical cells small, walls thin (incrassate in Loeskypnum); paraphyllia absent; rhizoids or rhizoid initials on stem at or just before leaf insertions or from various points on stems and leaves, rhizoids red-brown, slightly branched, smooth; axillary hairs usually well developed. Stem leaves straight or falcate, or from straight base suddenly curved, plicate or not; costa single, usually long, or double and usually short; alar cells differentiated or not, often inflated; medial laminal cells linear or short-linear, 1-stratose, smooth. Perichaetia with inner leaves erect, straight, lanceolate, ovate, oblong, or slightly obovate, plicate or not, costa single, usually well developed; vaginulae with paraphyses or naked. Seta long, smooth. Capsule ± horizontal (occasionally inclined in Loeskypnum), cylindric, curved; stomata long-pored; annulus separating or not; operculum conic; peristome perfect; exostome yellow-brown or brownish, external surface ± reticulate proximally, rarely entirely cross striolate, papillose distally, border ± widened at transitional zone in outer peristomial layer pattern, margins dentate or slightly so; endostome basal membrane high, segments long, not or narrowly perforate, cilia nodose. Calyptra cucullate, smooth.
Distribution
Nearly worldwide, temperate to subpolar regions and tropical mountains.
Discussion
Genera 7, species ca. 22 (7 genera, 20 species in the flora).
Genera of Calliergonaceae are fairly well circumscribed based on morphology and molecular data, and are well differentiated from Amblystegiaceae. All species, except sometimes Scorpidium revolvens and S. scorpioides, have a reticulate proximal external surface of the exostome, whereas all members here treated in Amblystegiaceae, except Conardia and Tomentypnum, are cross striolate on the outer basal exostome. Many Calliergonaceae species become translucent red when growing in habitats exposed to sunlight; this is never the case among Amblystegiaceae.
Morphological features further characterize the genera Calliergon, Loeskypnum, Sarmentypnum, Straminergon, and Warnstorfia. When shoots grow erect, these are radially rather than distichously branched, except in species that are sparsely branched. Rhizoid initials, and sometimes rhizoids, are frequently found in various parts of the leaf lamina, especially close to the apex. Leaf-borne rhizoid initial cells are easily recognized in being slightly wider than the surrounding laminal cells and lacking the pigments of the latter. Among Amblystegiaceae genera, rhizoid initials and rhizoids are found in leaves only in Conardia, in which they often occur both close to apices and on the abaxial costa, and in Tomentypnum, in which they are found only on the abaxial surface of the costa.
