TY - JOUR A1 - Kuc, Marian T1 - The discovery of a second locality in Peru for Pleuridum andinum Herz. (Ditrichaceae, Musci) T2 - Tropical bryology N2 - Pleuridium andinum Herz., a rare moss previously known from only 3 sites in South America, is here reported from a second locality in Peru. The new locality is near Aquas Caliente, Peru, ca. 5720 m a.s.l. This discovery is only one of three collections made since this species was first collected at the “locus classicus” in Bolivia in 1911. The holotype was examined and the original Latin diagnosis is amended in English as a result of examination of both the holotype and the newly discovered specimens. Previously unknown taxonomic features are figured.
