Marchantiidae
Marchantiopsida is a class of liverworts within the phylum Marchantiophyta. The species in this class are known as complex thalloid liverworts. The species in this class are widely distributed and can be found worldwide.

Marchantiales
Marchantiales is an order of thallose liverworts (also known as "complex thalloid liverworts") that includes species like '' Marchantia polymorpha'', a widespread plant often found beside rivers, and ''Lunularia cruciata'', a common and often troublesome weed in moist, temperate gardens and greenhouses. As in other bryophytes, the gametophyte generation is dominant, with the sporophyte existing as a short-lived part of the life cycle, dependent upon the gametophyte. The genus '' Marchantia'' is often used to typify the order, although there are also many species of '' Asterella'' and species of the genus '' Riccia'' are more numerous. The majority of genera are characterized by the presence of (a) special stalked vertical branches called archegoniophores or carpocephala, and (b) sterile cells celled elaters inside the sporangium. Phylogeny (extant Marchantiales) Based on the work by Villarreal et al. 2015 Phylogeny (extant and extinct Marchantiales) Extinct complex thal ...

Lunulariaceae
''Lunularia cruciata'', the crescent-cup liverwort, is a Marchantiophyta, liverwort of the order Marchantiales (until recently included in the Order (biology), order Lunulariales), and the only species in the genus ''Lunularia'' and family Lunulariaceae. The name, from Latin ''luna'', moon, refers to the moon-shaped Gemma (botany), gemma cups. Distribution ''L. cruciata'' is distributed across the world, found in continents including Europe, Australasia, Asia, the Americas, and Africa. It occurs commonly in western Europe, and is native to the Mediterranean region, where the morphological forms from sexual reproduction are more frequently found there. It is also common in California, where it now grows "wild", and is known as an introduced weed in gardens and greenhouses in Australia.Schuster, Rudolf M. ''The Hepaticae and Anthocerotae of North America'', volume VI, pages 80-91. (Chicago: Field Museum of Natural History, 1992). . Ella Orr Campbell believed that ''L. cruciata'' ...

Liverworts
The Marchantiophyta () are a division of non-vascular land plants commonly referred to as hepatics or liverworts. Like mosses and hornworts, they have a gametophyte-dominant life cycle, in which cells of the plant carry only a single set of genetic information. It is estimated that there are about 9000 species of liverworts. Some of the more familiar species grow as a flattened leafless thallus, but most species are leafy with a form very much like a flattened moss. Leafy species can be distinguished from the apparently similar mosses on the basis of a number of features, including their single-celled rhizoids. Leafy liverworts also differ from most (but not all) mosses in that their leaves never have a costa (present in many mosses) and may bear marginal cilia (very rare in mosses). Other differences are not universal for all mosses and liverworts, but the occurrence of leaves arranged in three ranks, the presence of deep lobes or segmented leaves, or a lack of clearly dif ...

Marchantiaceae
Marchantiaceae is a family of liverworts in order Marchantiales. It contains a single genus ''Marchantia''. Genera in Marchantiaceae Until recently, three genera were included in the Marchantiaceae: * '' Bucegia'' Radian 1903 * ''Marchantia'' Linnaeus 1753 * ''Preissia'' Corda 1829 non Opiz 1852 However, the genera ''Bucegia'' and ''Preissia'' have since been merged into ''Marchantia'', leaving only the single genus in the family.Long, David G., Laura L. Forrest, Juan Carlos Villarreal, Barbara J. Crandall-Stotler. 2016. "Taxonomic changes in Marchantiaceae, Corsiniaceae and Cleveaceae (Marchantiidae, Marchantiophyta)". ''Phytotaxa'' 252 (1): 077–080. A number of additional genera have been moved to other families: * '' Asterella'', now in family Aytoniaceae * '' Conocephalum'', now in family Conocephalaceae * '' Dumortiera'', now in family Dumortieraceae * '' Lunularia'', now in family Lunulariaceae * ''Reboulia ''Reboulia hemisphaerica'', the hemisphaeric liverw ...

Sphaerocarpales
Sphaerocarpales is an order of plants within the liverworts. Approximately twenty species are in this order which is sub-divided into four families: Monocarpaceae, Sphaerocarpaceae and Riellaceae, as well as the extinct family Naiaditaceae. The inclusion of the Naiaditaceae is uncertain, and the family has sometimes been assigned to the Calobryales.

Conocephalaceae
''Conocephalum'' is a genus of complex thalloid liverworts in the order Marchantiales and is the only extant genus in the family Conocephalaceae.AKIYAMA, H. (2022). Morphological and ecological diversification of Conocephalum conicum complex in Japan and Taiwan. ''Humans Nat'', ''32'', 1-45. Some species of ''Conocephalum'' are assigned to the ''Conocephalum conicum'' complex, which includes several cryptic species. ''Conocephalum'' species are large liverworts with distinct patterns on the upper thallus, giving the appearance of snakeskin. The species ''Conocephalum conicum'' is named for its cone-shaped reproductive structures, called archegoniophores. Common names include snakeskin liverwort, great scented liverwort and cat-tongue liverwort. Species of ''Conocephalum'' are relatively common and widely distributed throughout North America, Europe and East Asia. ''Conocephalum'' often occurs in moist and shaded habitats and are also found in open woodlands, sandy banks, wet rock ...
