“…The addition of new records to the list of bryophytes in Brazil increased the knowledge of the diversity in this group, and emphasized the importance of new records or new taxa published by Costa et al (2008), Ilkiu-Borges & Pereira Alvarenga (2008, IlkiuBorges & Gradstein (2008), Bastos (2011), Bordin et al (2011), Câmara & Carvalho-Silva (2011), Peralta (2011), Ilkiu-Borges (2011), Câmara & Carvalho-Silva (2012, Brito & Ilkiu-Borges (2012a,b), Peralta & Boas-Bastos (2012), Peralta & Reiner-Drewald (2013), and Ayub et al (2014).…”

The bryoflora of Brazil comprises 1,524 species, 117 families, and 413 genera (11 hornworts, 633 liverworts, and 880 mosses). The most diverse families of liverworts are: Lejeuneaceae (285 species), Lepidoziaceae (48), Frullaniaceae (37), Ricciaceae (36), Plagiochilaceae (27), Radulaceae and Metzgeriaceae (26 each), Lophocoleaceae (18), Aneuraceae (15), and Calypogeiaceae (13); while, for the mosses, we have: Sphagnaceae (83 species), Fissidentaceae (65) Pottiaceae (63), Dicranaceae (54), Bryaceae and Sematophyllaceae (53 each), Orthotrichaceae and Pilotrichaceae (51 each), Calymperaceae (48), and Hypnaceae (28). These large groups account for 71% of the Brazilian bryophyte species. Lejeuneaceae and Sphagnaceae are the families with highest number of endemic taxa (54 and 60 species). The Atlantic Rainforest presents the greatest number of species (1,337), followed by the Amazon Rainforest (570) and Cerrado (478). The highest number of endemic species (242) is associated with the Atlantic Rainforest, where the Dense Ombrophilous Forest concentrates 73% of the species with 62% endemism. The Southeastern region is the most diverse in number of species (1,228) and with more endemism (219). Most endangered species are restricted to the Atlantic Rainforest of southeastern Brazil, which is the diversity and endemism centre for mosses and liverworts. The information currently presented by the Brazilian List is close to the real bryophyte diversity found in the country. Key words: hornworts, liverworts, mosses, bryoflora, South America. ResumoA brioflora do Brasil conta com 1.524 espécies, 117 famílias e 413 gêneros (11 antóceros, 633 hepáticas e 880 musgos). As famílias mais diversas de hepáticas são: Lejeuneaceae (285 espécies), Lepidoziaceae (48), Frullaniaceae (37), Ricciaceae (36), Plagiochilaceae (27), Radulaceae e Metzgeriaceae (26 cada), Lophocoleaceae (18), Aneuraceae (15) e Calypogeiaceae (13); e de musgos são: Sphagnaceae (83), Fissidentaceae (65), Pottiaceae (63), Dicranaceae (54), Bryaceae e Sematophyllaceae (53 cada), Orthotrichaceae e Pilotrichaceae (51 cada), Calymperaceae (48) e Hypnaceae (28), totalizando 71% das espécies de briófitas do país. Lejeuneaceae e Sphagnaceae são as famílias com maior número de endemismo (54 e 60 espécies). A Mata Atlântica apresenta o maior número de espécies (1.337), seguida pela Amazônia (570) e pelo Cerrado (478). Também apresenta o maior número de espécies endêmicas (242), com a Floresta Ombrófila Densa concentrando 73% dos táxons e 62% dos endemismos. A Região Sudeste é a mais diversa (1.228) e com maior endemismo (219). A maioria das espécies ameaçadas de extinção está restrita a Mata Atlântica do sudeste, que é um centro de diversidade e endemismo para musgos e hepáticas no país. As informações da Lista de Espécies da Flora do Brasil estão próximas da real diversidade de briófitas do país. Palavras-chave: antóceros, hepáticas, musgos, brioflora, América do Sul.

“…The material examined, when compared to the original description (Bordin et al 2011), presents a larger size of the gametophyte and limbidium, which is always triestratosus. The larger limbidium may be related to the wetter and higher altitude environment where the specimens were collected.…”

“…Comments about geographic distribution. Fissidens pseudoplurisetus was described in 2011 and is endemic to Brazil, previously known only in the Atlantic Forest of São Paulo and Paraná, occurring as corticicolous, in branches of trees of Dense Ombrophilous Forest and Nebular Forest (Bordin et al 2011;Santos 2016). This new record ( Fig.…”

Rio Grande do Sul is the southern state of Brazil and includes 569 taxa of bryophytes, a rich diversity promoted by its geographical position. All recent floristic inventories in the state recorded new occurrences of species, indicating that the diversity of bryophytes may be underestimated. Through floristic inventories carried out between 2016 and 2019, new occurrences of 16 species, included in seven families and 11 genera, were identified. Seven of them are also new records for the Southern Brazil. Bryophyta is represented by five species, four genera and four families, and Marchantiophyta by 11 species, seven genera, and three families.

“…Hal.) Pursell is not recognized in Asia, and the taxon is endemic to Brazil (Pursell, 1994;Bordin et al, 2011), and (2) F. pseudolateralis Cardot and F. borealis C. Gao are recognized as synonyms of F. geppii and F. bryoides, respectively (Noguchi, 1987;Li et al, 2001). In this study, I also updated the list of Fissidens in Korea consisting of a total of 38 taxa of Fissidens, covering three subgenera and five sections (Appendix 1).…”
