Abstract

Phmatoceros bulbiculosus is one of the rare hornwort species known from Türkiye. The species was first recorded from İzmir by Bornmüller in 1906; however, the accuracy of this identification was later questioned. The presence of distinctly stalked ventral tubers, a well-developed midrib, and smooth spores clearly distinguishes P. bulbiculosus from Phaeoceros laevis. In the present study, the stalked tubers considered the most diagnostic morphological feature for separating this species are clearly illustrated and described. In addition, a revised identification key for the members of Anthocerotophyta in Türkiye are provided.

Özet

Phmatoceros bulbiculosus, Türkiye’den bilinen, nadir boynuzlu ot türlerinden biridir. Tür, ilk olarak 1906 yılında Bornmüller tarafından İzmir’den kaydedilmiş, ancak bu tanımlamanın doğruluğu sonradan tartışmalı bulunmuştur. Ventral yüzeyden çıkan belirgin saplı tüberler, iyi gelişmiş orta damar (midrib) ve düzgün yüzeyli sporlar, P. bulbiculosus’u, Phaeoceros laevis’ten açık biçimde ayıran karakterlerdir. Bu çalışmada, türün ayırt edilmesinde en önemli morfolojik özellik olan saplı tüberler açık biçimde ortaya konulmuştur. Ayrıca, Türkiye’deki Anthocerotophyta üyeleri için yenilenmiş bir teşhis anahtarı sunulmuştur.
