Discussion
Cryphaea ravenelii is rare. Although similar at first glance to C. glomerata, the species can be easily distinguished by its blunt leaf apices and paired exostome teeth. Furthermore, the interior perichaetial leaves of C. glomerata have a greater tendency to be awned than those of C. ravenelii. Cryphaea ravenelii occupies the same habitats as C. glomerata, and the two species have often been collected growing together.
