Paracromastigum (Lepidoziaceae)  
     
Paracromastigum is a genus of leafy liverworts and in Tasmania is represented by 2 species. This genus includes what was previously known as Hyalolepidozia (ie. H. longiscypha).

The genus is very similar to some species of Telaranea, particularly those with spine-like leaves (T. herzogii/T. tasmanica) but the leaves in Paracromastigum are assymetrical.
