A synoptic taxonomic treatment is provided for the 24 species and 9 varieties of the moss genus Fissidens currently recognised in New Zealand. A key to the taxa, based largely on gametophytic characters, references to illustrations of New Zealand material, and an index to epithets are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
