Notes:
Gradsteinia, only known from the type locality, is not likely to be confused with any other genus, the combination of distinctive features include - the frimbrate, deeply concave oblong to oblong-ovate leaves with a diffuse multiple costae (3-5 segments). Ochyra described this as one of several monotypic aquatic taxa. He has suggested placement of this taxon in the family Donrichardaiaceae, a segregate of little proven meaning. Recent molecular studies suggest that Gradsteinia is within the generic limits of taxa that are generally associated with the Amblystegiaceae.
