--><p><i>Erpodium domingense</i> might be confused with <i>Solmsiella biseriata</i>. Both species have pluripapillose laminal cells. The leaves of <i>E. domingense</i>, however, are arranged in several rows and are more or less monomorphic, whereas the leaves of <i>S. biseriata</i> are arranged in four rows and are distinctly dimorphic. <i>Erpodium</i> cubense E. G. Britton, endemic to Cuba, is similar to <i>E. domingense</i> but has much smaller laminal cells (9–11 µm), emergent capsules, and smaller spores (18–20 µm).</p>
