JungermannialesIntroductionJungermanniales is the biggest Order in
Marchantiidae. It consists of 12 Suborders and between 15 and 46 families, depending on the classification being more refined or containing bigger families.
There is only
Plagiochila asplenioides that we have a proving of and that indicates that it is in
Phase 4. So probably the Suborder
Lophocoleineae that contains Plagiochila is in
Subphase 4.
