Mizutania is a genus of liverworts restricted to tropical Asia, and contains a single species Mizutania riccardioides. It is classified in order of Jungermanniales and is a member of the family of Calypogeiaceae within that order.[2]
The genus name of Mizutania is in honour of Masami Mizutani (b.1930), who was a Japanese botanist (Bryology), who worked at the Hattori Botanical Laboratory.[3]
The genus was circumscribed by Tatsuwo Furuki and Zennoske Iwatsuki in J. Hattori Bot. Lab. vol.67 on pages 291 and 294 in 1989.
