Nomenclatural Comment
According to Meagher (2011, quoting H.N. Dixon) the name Climacium derives from the Greek klimax (staircase, ladder), “alluding to the appearance of the processes of the inner peristome, the two halves of which are regularly united by projections between the perforations, giving somewhat the appearance of a ladder”.
