“…Borneo is a huge island and only a small fraction of its land mass has been bryologically explored. Thus, the probability of finding newly recorded as well as undescribed species of bryophytes is still high (Akiyama and Suleiman 2015;Andi et al 2015;Chua and Suleiman 2015;Ellis et al 2015Ellis et al , 2016aEllis et al , 2016bEllis et al , 2018Ellis et al , 2019Zhu et al 2017;. With the four new additions of pleurocarpous mosses, Borneo now has 773 species and infraspecific taxa of mosses.…”

Four Hypnales mosses from three pleurocarpous families are recorded in Borneo for the first time. They are Neonoguchia auriculata (Copp. ex Thér.) S.H. Lin (Meteoriaceae), Oxyrrhynchium bergmaniae (E.B. Bartram) Huttunen & Ignatov (Brachytheciaceae), Thamnobryum latifolium (Bosch & Sande Lac.) Nieuwl. (Neckeraceae), and Trachycladiella sparsa (Mitt.) M. Menzel (Meteoriaceae). The specimens were collected from Nuluhon Trusmadi Forest Reserve in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Descriptions and illustrations of the four species as well as notes on their distribution and distinguishing characteristics are provided.

“…The liverwort flora of Malaysia, particularly from the states of Sabah and Sarawak, has been much explored since the 19th century; however, many mountains and forests in Malaysia remain largely unexplored and many taxa are completely unknown [2]. Papers dealing with Malaysian liverworts are being published each year, including new floristic liverwort explorations, e.g., [3][4][5], descriptions of new species, e.g., [6][7][8], and integrative morphological and molecular studies, e.g., [9][10][11]. Here, we describe another new species of Lejeunea from the state of Pahang in Peninsular Malaysia based on morphological and molecular evidence.…”

Prior to the advent of molecular work, the observable variation in vegetative reproduction has been used to classify Lejeunea into subgenera and sections. Thereby, the ability of developing caducous leaves was regarded as major factor. A reexamination of several Lejeunea specimens revealed that L. cocoes with caducous leaves shows considerable morphological differences with non-caducous leaved plants of L. cocoes. Phylogenetic analyses based on a three-marker dataset (rbcL, trnLF and the nuclear ribosomal ITS region) indicated two independent and robust lineages of the morpho-species L. cocoes. We consider both clades as two distinct species and therefore describe the new species, L. malaysiana for L. cocoes morpho-species with caducous leaves. Lejeunea malaysiana is characterized by its caducous leaves with ribbon-like and plantlet regenerants, strongly reduced leaf lobules, distant and deeply bilobed underleaves, long-keeled obovoid perianth, and autoicy and ranges from tropical Asia to the Pacific region.

“…A fair number of bryophyte studies have been published and reported from Sabah (e.g., Mizutani 1974;Inoue 1989;Yamada 1989;Piippo 1989;Frahm et al 1990;Akiyama et al 2001;Suleiman et al 2006;Andi et al 2015;Zhu et al 2017). However, no specific study focused on epiphyllous liverwort communities has been conducted in tropical rainforests of Sabah and within Malaysia.…”

We evaluated the species richness and beta diversity of epiphyllous assemblages from three selected localities in Sabah, i.e. Mt. Silam in Sapagaya Forest Reserve, and Ulu Senagang and Mt. Alab in Crocker Range Park. A total of 98 species were found and a phytosociological survey was carried out based on the three study areas. A detailed statistical analysis including standard correlation and regression analyses, ordination of species and leaves using centered principal component analysis, and the SDR simplex method to evaluate the beta diversity, was conducted. Beta diversity is very high in the epiphyllous liverwort assemblages in Sabah, with species replacement as the major component of pattern formation and less pronounced richness difference. The community analysis of the epiphyllous communities in Sabah makes possible their detailed description and comparison with similar communities of other continents.
