R. orthocarpum Mitt.
[Tan & Iwatsuki (1991) synonymized Racopilum orthocarpum
with R. cuspidigerum. Tan & Iwatsuki (1993) reported
this species from Thailand by citing a reference of Touw (1968).
The latter author, however, clearly indicated otherwise: "the
differences between the present species and R. cuspidigerum
(Schwaegr.) Aongstr. are small, and presumedly the Thai records
of the last mentioned species have to be transferred to R.
orthocarpus. On the other hand, sterile specimens cannot be
named safely, and have been placed here with some hesitation"]. Illustrations. Gangulee (1969-80, Fig. 582).

R. orthostegiusMont.
[Eakin (1976: 28) considered this species a synonym of Regmatodon
polycarpus (Griff.) Mitt., while Wijk et al. (1959-1969,
Vol. 4: 281) treated them vice versa. Although the new synonym
has not been formally published by Eakin, R. polycarpus
has been used by many authors in the west. In Asia, Regmatodon
orthostegius has often be recognized. Clearly, the two species
are considered identical by nearly all studies. The confusion
is centered around which of these two species is an older name.
Eakin (1976) interpreted that Anhymenium polycarpon Griff.,
the basionym for Regmatodon polycarpus, was published in
1838 when the paper was read at a meeting before the Linnean Society
of London. However, the proceedings of this meeting were only
formally published in 1843. If this date is accepted, Regmatodon
orthostegius Mont. was published earlier (1842) than R.
polycarpus].
