| | New Zealand Anthocerotae (Hornworts) |
 | | However, recent DNA studies have shown that Notothylas is the sister genus to Phaeoceros, so such distinction is inappropriate. |
 | | Five to nine genera are recognised, including Anthoceros, Megaceros, Dendroceros, Phaeoceros (sometimes treated as a subgenus or partial synonym of Aspiromitus or Anthoceros), Folioceros, Notothylas and Nothoceros. |
 | | These are widely distributed in temperate and tropical latitudes; all genera found in tropics and subtropics; most found on moist mineral soil of banks and cliffs, among grasses, and along streams, from sea level to alpine elevations. |
