- Observation Anatomy and sequence data place N. renzagliensis within Nothoceros as sister taxon to all Neotropical Nothoceros.
- Observation Two cases of parallel evolution of endospory were found across the hornwort phylogeny.
- Observation Endospory appears to be a highly homoplastic feature across bryophytes, with several independent origins in mosses and liverworts.
