Remarks Cheilolejeunea ovistipula is a phenotype of C. rigidula with rather large trigones and a relatively long lobule tooth. The record of C. ovistipula from Capesterre-Belle-Eau, Guadeloupe ( Bastos 2017 : “on isolated tree at the margin of banana plantation, 400 m , 3 April 2002 , Schäfer-Verwimp & Verwimp 22500/ C”) presumably belongs to C. rigidula as well.
