Mosses of Venezuela
(2010)
926 taxa of mosses are listed for Venezuela completed by bibliographical references. Many significant additions have been added or changed from the original document completed in 2007, particularly a complete review of all the bryophytes on the original Venezuela list. This was caused because the TROPICOS group had revised all the existing bryophytes, to bring them up to the most recent views. This may not be popular, but otherwise there is no TROPICOS. This document was originally written 3 years ago, and we now have to familiarise ourselves with the new TROPICOS situation, which will now become the new standard - but with so many changed names, we might have problems in mapping our familiar system to the new one.

A small collection of bryophytes made during holidays on Réunion in September 2009 revealed 6 species new to the island (Brachymenium acuminatum, B. dicranoides, Bryum lanatum, Campylopus clavatus, Mielichhoferia bryoides and Oxyrhynchium hians). Campylopus crateris has been found for the first time with sporophytes. These new records are incorporated in a new alphabetic list of the mosses of Réunion. Keys for the species for several genera are given.
