The present paper is preliminary to a monographic treatment of the genera Acrolejeunea (Spruce) Schiffn. and Schiffneriolejeunea Verd. The main purpose of this paper is to reestablish Acrolejeunea as the nomenclaturally correct name of a genus of Lejeuneaceae to which in this century commonly the name Ptychocoleus Trev. was applied.
