REKAMAN BARU TUMBUHAN LUMUT SEJATI DI PULAU ENGGANO, SUMATERA

Enggano Island is a small island in northwest Bengkulu, Sumatera. The mosses diversity of Enggano Island has ever been reported, unfortunately it has never been identified to species. The inventory of Enggano’s mosses reported 49 species comprising 27 genera and 12 families. Aerobryopsis wallichii (Brid.) M. Fleisch is a dominant species of mosses in study site. Five families consisting of 17 genera and 49 species are new records to Enggano’s mosses. Two species namely are Fissidens robinsonii Broth. and Syrrhopodon semilimber (Mitt.) Besch are recorded as new record to Enggano Island and probably are also found in main island, Sumatera.

Abstract Illustrated revision of Fissidens subgenus Fissidens in tropical eastern Africa. Fissidens artsii Brugg.-Nann. is newly reported from Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda; F. gomae P. de la Varde & J.-F.

A revision of the Fissidentaceae (Musci) of La Réunion (including all species known from Mauritius and Rodriguez)

This is a revision of the Fissidentaceae of La Réunion with keys, descriptions and illustrations of 35 species. Fissidens pseudoplumosus subsp. subplanifrons, the only Mascarene taxon not known from La Réunion, is included. Eighteen species are reported as new from La Réunion: Fissidens androgynus, F. bogosicus, F. curvatus, F. cyatheicola, F. flaccidus, F. leucocinctus, F. madecassus, F. megalotis subsp. helictocaulos, F. pallidinervis, F. pocsii, F. porrectus, F. ramulosus, F. rufescens, F. serratus var. serratus, F. submarginatus, F. taxifolius, F. tenellus and F. zollingeri; and three species are reported as new for Mauritius (F. brevifrons, F. ramulosus and F. sciophyllus). Fissidens tenellus is recorded for the first time from Africa. Fissidens subplanifrons is made a subspecies of F. pseudoplumosus. Fissidens cyatheicola, a new species, is proposed. Fissidens boivinianus var. longifolius is subsumed under F. asplenioides, F. cremersii and F. grandiretis are subsumed under F. pellucidus and F. ellipticus and F. ligulinus under F. punctulatus.
