Abstract
Riccia hantamensis, a new species from the Hantams Mountain, District Calvinia, is described. It is clearly related to R. alatospora, but is a much larger plant. Like other species with a dorsal epithelium of free-standing cell pillars, it belongs to section Pilifer Volk. R. alatospora, originally only known from Platklip, Stellenbosch (Volk Perold 1985), is now also recorded from Carolusberg, Hester Malan Reserve, Namaqualand.
