- Observation Noteroclada sporophytes are enclosed by a shoot calyptra and Fossombronia-like caulocalyx.
- Observation Noteroclada sporeling ontogeny differs from Pellia.
- Observation Molecular analyses found genetic variation within Noteroclada.
- Observation Morphological and molecular data support one species, N. confluens.
- Observation No reliable Noteroclada specimens were confirmed from Africa, Australasia or the Kerguelen sector.
- Observation Noteroclada has two centers of distribution in Latin America.
- Observation Noteroclada has disjunct populations in the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, Tristan da Cunha and Gough Island.
