Types for the names Barbula saxicola Lamy, Barbula subulata var. longifolia Kindb., Syntrichia alpina Brid., Tortula inermis var. submarginata Schiffn., and Tortula subulata var. compacta Schiffn., are designated here. Syntrichia alpina is considered conspecific with T. subulata Hedw., with which Tortula inermis var. submarginata and T. subulata var. compacta are also synonymized, as is Barbula subulata var. longifolia with T. schimperi M.J. Cano & al. Barbula saxicola is here considered to apply to the species currently known as Dialytrichia fragilifolia (Bizot & Cl. Roux) F. Lara; as B. saxicola has priority, this necessitates the new combination D. saxicola (Lamy) M.J. Cano.
