Updates on Vietnamese moss flora and species new to the country

Abstract

  We report six new moss records for Vietnam: Calyptothecium integrifolium (E.B.Bartram) Nog., C. philippinense Broth., Symphysodontella convoluta (Doz. & Molk.) M.Fleisch., S. involuta (Thwait. & Mitt.) M.Fleisch of Pterobryaceae; Neckeropsis formosica (Broth. & Yasuda) S.Olsson, Enroth, Huttunen & D.Quandt of Neckeraceae; and Pogonatum minus W.X.Xu & R.L.Xiong of Polytrichaceae. Additionally, we update species distributions at the provincial level for 20 species and revise identifications for five species, contributing to a better understanding of Vietnamese moss diversity.
