Acromastigum (Lepidoziaceae)  
     
Acromastigum is a genus of leafy liverworts and in Tasmania is represented by 6 species. 

The shoots of Acromastigum has a Y-branching (dichotomous) pattern like the closely related Bazzania. However, Acromastigum is usually smaller and has two lobed leaves. The underleaves Acromastigum are 3-lobed.

The genus includes a species (A. divaricata) previously under the genus Mastigobryum.

A key to the Tasmanian Acromastigum is in development.
