- Observation Octoblepharum was resolved as monophyletic and sister to Calymperaceae.
- Observation The Octoblepharum–Calymperaceae clade was sister to Hypodontiaceae.
- Recommendation The authors suggest placing Octoblepharum in its own family, Octoblepharaceae.
- Observation The analyzed Octoblepharum species were molecularly distinguishable.
- Observation Two specimens labelled O. albidum were recognized as O. arthrocormoides, possibly the first records since description.
- Association The molecular variability of O. albidum may correspond to distinct morphological groups within a species complex.
