The two most recent classifications of mosses differ from other systems in the ranking of major lineages typified by Takakia, Sphagnum, Andreaea, Andreaeobryum and peristomate mosses. Here we propose to accommodate all these lineages at the subphylum rather than the informal superclass rank, which requires that the Andreaeophytina stat. nov. and Andreaeobryophytina stat. nov. be erected.
