“…Since our study was based on living plants, we were able to collect information on the intravital coloration of the plants, as well as on the morphological parameters of the oil bodies; this information is also presented here. The available data [21] do not permit us to make any statements about the value of oil bodies in this genus due to the lack of information for many taxa. Therefore, now is the time to accumulate data that would be useful for the subsequent analysis.…”

The distribution of known Syzygiella taxa in Indochina was reviewed. Currently, four species are known in Indochina: S. autumnalis, S. elongella, S. nipponica, and S. securifolia. This genus is reported for the first time in the flora of Cambodia, and S. securifolia is newly recorded for Vietnam. Herein, a description of oil bodies for S. securifolia is provided for the first time. A morphological description of the species and intravital photographs, as well as line-art illustrations, are provided along with the identification key to the Syzygiella taxa known in Indochina. A comparison of the climatic parameters of the collection sites for four known species showed that three of them occupy a relatively marginal position in the flora of Indochina as a whole and are known from colder biomes on the very northern edge of the peninsula. The locations of Syzygiella securifolia are scattered not only on the geographical map of Indochina but also on the bioclimatic scatterplot; these locations are likely an underestimation of the distribution of this taxon in Indochina, although it is generally rare worldwide. A comparison of lists of liverworts across the countries of Indochina will help identify groups of taxa for further targeted searches with the purpose of obtaining more comprehensive knowledge of the biodiversity of still poorly studied Indochina countries.

The long coexistence of various floral elements, landscape diversity, and island isolation led to the formation of the richest Eurasian hemiboreal liverwort flora in the southern Kurils. This land that covers less than 5000 square kilometres and houses 242 species and two varieties of liverworts and hornworts. The flora ‘core’ is represented by hemiboreal East Asian and boreal circumpolar taxa. Other elements that have noticeable input in the flora formation are cool-temperate East Asian hypoarctomontane circumpolar and arctomontane. The distribution of some species is restricted to the thermal pools near active or dormant volcanoes or volcanic ash deposits; such species generally provide specificity to the flora. Despite the territorial proximity, the climate of each considered island is characterized by features that, in the vast majority of cases, distinguish it from the climate of the neighbouring island. The last circumstance may inspire the difference in the liverwort taxonomic composition of each of the islands. The comparison of the taxonomic composition of district floras in the Amphi-Pacific hemiarctic, boreal, and cool-temperate Asia revealed four main focal centres: East Kamchatka Peninsula and Sakhalin Island, the southern Sikhote-Alin and the East Manchurian Mountains, the mountains of the southern part of the Korean Peninsula, and the South Kurils plus northern Hokkaido. The remaining floras involved in the comparison occupy an intermediate position between these four centres.

The Type Specimens of Plectocolea and Solenostoma (Marchantiophyta) in Some Japanese and European Herbaria

Solenostomataceae are among the most diverse and, at the same time, least described liverwort families in Pacific Asia. Many species therein are known only from type descriptions, which are sometimes incomplete. The present account is based on a study of 81 type specimens belonging to 61 species known mostly in East Asia, although also in other regions; it provides line-art figures and photomicrographs of all the studied taxa. One lectotype and one epitype are designated, and six new combinations are proposed. as Additionally, the indication of a necessity of an epitype for Plectocolea setulosa Herzog is justified.
