Updates

Jan 31, 2012 - Genus description

The original Neidiopsis page was posted in 2009 by Spaulding and Edlund, with Metzeltin added at a later date. Bahls clarified the diagnostic features and expanded on the genus description in the text for this update. There were no taxonomic or nomenclatural changes involved in the update. - S. Spaulding
