Nomenclatural note
"This species is only known from the type locality and has been reported from the Czech Republic. This species apparently has spermatangial papillae scattered irregularly rather than on the nodes which is its only distinguishing character. It is likely that specimens attributed to the species represent aberrant specimens of one of the other European species, potentially L. rigida." (Vis & Necchi 2021: 225). - (15 April 2022) - M.D. Guiry
