Leptolejeunea convexistipa
Bischl.
Veraguas
:
Loc.
11
, epiphyllous,
30861
.
So far known from
Brazil
(
type
),
Costa Rica
(
Lücking 1995
, as
L.
cf.
convexistipa
), and
Ecuador
(Heinrichs et al. 2014); however, its distribution is incompletely known since it was included in the polymorphous
L. maculata
(Mitt.) Schiffn. (
Grolle 1976
)
. Recent molecular studies provided some evidence that this complex may include several species, and therefore
L. convexistipa
was kept separately (
Heinrichs et al. 2014a
).
