Taxonomic notes
Womersley (2003: 133) notes: "The type of Acrosorium ciliolatum has numerous short, slender, "cilia" on the margins and surface.... As Kylin (1929: 13) considered, A. ciliolatum is not specifically distinct from A. venulosum, and is the earliest name for this Acrosorium. Most descriptions under Acrosorium vunulosum or A. uncinatum state "gametophyes unknown". However, a few southern Australian collections (e.g. AD, A31152) with typical uncinate branches and agreeing well with this species, do bear cystocarps, and the description" (given by Womersley 2003) "of female stages is based on these." - (26 Jan 2009) - Wendy Guiry
