Liverworts
The Marchantiophyta () are a division of non-vascular land plants commonly referred to as hepatics or liverworts. Like mosses and hornworts, they have a gametophyte-dominant life cycle, in which cells of the plant carry only a single set of genetic information. It is estimated that there are about 9000 species of liverworts. Some of the more familiar species grow as a flattened leafless thallus, but most species are leafy with a form very much like a flattened moss. Leafy species can be distinguished from the apparently similar mosses on the basis of a number of features, including their single-celled rhizoids. Leafy liverworts also differ from most (but not all) mosses in that their leaves never have a costa (present in many mosses) and may bear marginal cilia (very rare in mosses). Other differences are not universal for all mosses and liverworts, but the occurrence of leaves arranged in three ranks, the presence of deep lobes or segmented leaves, or a lack of clearly differ ...

Conocephalaceae
''Conocephalum'' is a genus of complex thalloid liverworts in the order Marchantiales and is the only extant genus in the family Conocephalaceae.AKIYAMA, H. (2022). Morphological and ecological diversification of Conocephalum conicum complex in Japan and Taiwan. ''Humans Nat'', ''32'', 1-45. Some species of ''Conocephalum'' are assigned to the ''Conocephalum conicum'' complex, which includes several cryptic species. ''Conocephalum'' species are large liverworts with distinct patterns on the upper thallus, giving the appearance of snakeskin. The species ''Conocephalum conicum'' is named for its cone-shaped reproductive structures, called archegoniophores. Common names include snakeskin liverwort, great scented liverwort and cat-tongue liverwort. Species of ''Conocephalum'' are relatively common and widely distributed throughout North America, Europe and East Asia. ''Conocephalum'' often occurs in moist and shaded habitats and are also found in open woodlands, sandy banks, wet rock ...

Marchantia Polymorpha
''Marchantia polymorpha'' is a species of large thalloid liverwort in the class Marchantiopsida. ''M. polymorpha'' is highly variable in appearance and contains several subspecies. This species is dioicous, having separate male and female plants. ''M. polymorpha'' has a wide distribution and is found worldwide.Matthews, Robin F. 1993. Marchantia polymorpha. In: Fire Effects Information System, nline U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station, Fire Sciences Laboratory (Producer). Available: https://www.fs.fed.us/database/feis/plants/bryophyte/marpol/all.html 017, December 8 Common names include common liverwort or umbrella liverwort. Distribution ''Marchantia polymorpha'' subsp. ''ruderalis'' has a circumpolar boreo-arctic cosmopolitan distribution, found worldwide on all continents except Antarctica. Habitat ''Marchantia polymorpha'' grows on shaded moist soil and rocks in damp habitats such as the banks of streams and pools, bogs, fen ...

Marchantiales
Marchantiales is an order of thallose liverworts (also known as "complex thalloid liverworts") that includes species like ''Marchantia polymorpha'', a widespread plant often found beside rivers, and '' Lunularia cruciata'', a common and often troublesome weed in moist, temperate gardens and greenhouses. As in other bryophytes, the gametophyte generation is dominant, with the sporophyte existing as a short-lived part of the life cycle, dependent upon the gametophyte. The genus ''Marchantia'' is often used to typify the order, although there are also many species of ''Asterella'' and species of the genus ''Riccia'' are more numerous. The majority of genera are characterized by the presence of (a) special stalked vertical branches called archegoniophores or carpocephala, and (b) sterile cells celled elaters inside the sporangium. Phylogeny (extant Marchantiales) Based on the work by Villarreal et al. 2015 Phylogeny (extant and extinct Marchantiales) Extinct complex thalloid ...

Lunulariales
''Lunularia cruciata'', the crescent-cup liverwort, is a liverwort of the order Marchantiales (until recently included in the order Lunulariales), and the only species in the genus ''Lunularia'' and family Lunulariaceae. The name, from Latin ''luna'', moon, refers to the moon-shaped gemma cups. Distribution ''L. cruciata'' is distributed across the world, found in continents including Europe, Australasia, Asia, the Americas, and Africa. It occurs commonly in western Europe, and is native to the Mediterranean region, where the morphological forms from sexual reproduction are more frequently found there. It is also common in California, where it now grows "wild", and is known as an introduced weed in gardens and greenhouses in Australia.Schuster, Rudolf M. ''The Hepaticae and Anthocerotae of North America'', volume VI, pages 80-91. (Chicago: Field Museum of Natural History, 1992). . Ella Orr Campbell believed that ''L. cruciata'' was introduced into New Zealand sometime after ...

Monosoleniaceae
''Monosolenium tenerum'' is a weedy species of liverwort found in east Asia. It is the only species in the genus ''Monosolenium'' and the family Monosoleniaceae. Ecology ''Monosolenium tenerum'' is a terrestrial plant, growing on moist, shady soil, sometimes in association with '' Marchantia palmata''. The species has an east Asiatic distribution. It has been found in east India (Assam, Himachal Pradesh, & Uttarakhand), Nepal, China (northwestern Sichuan, Guangdong, & Macau), Taiwan, as well as the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, and Hawaii. All areas where the plant grows are subtropical or temperate regions with mesic habitats, where there is ample supply of moisture. Perhaps it is because the species grows in such mesic climates that the thallus (plant body) has become simplified, since the chambered internal anatomy of other Marchantiales seems adapted to a climate with periodic drying and an unreliable water supply. The species is able to exploit high levels of nitrogen in surf ...
