“…One example is the number of species accepted in the genus, ranging from 51, according to Maier (2010), who synonymized many names of morphologically diverging taxa, to 71, as reported by Muñoz and Pando (2000), to 95, following Hastings and Greven (2007). Some of the controversial species have recently been resolved based on molecular and morphological data (Hugonnot et al 2018;Kou et al 2019;Feng et al 2021).…”

The genus Grimmia Hedw. has been considered taxonomically difficult because of its great morphological variability, and its treatments by different specialists have led to incongruent results. One of the debates in the genus is the species status of Grimmia limprichtii Kern, an Asian-European disjunct moss species that has been considered identical to Grimmia anodon Bruch & Schimp. or Grimmia tergestina Tomm ex Bruch & Schimp. It has also been regarded as the muticous-leaved male plants of G. tergestina. Based on a detailed analysis of the type and many non-type specimens combining the molecular and morphological data, the reinstatement of species rank for G. limprichtii is proposed. The diagnostic characteristics of G. limprichtii and its distinction from some closely related species, with which it may be confused, are discussed. Grimmia obtusifolia C. Gao & T. Cao is considered a synonym of G. limprichtii based on molecular and morphological data.

“…, is a globally very rare bryophyte in the Grimmiaceae, a European endemic known from a few localities in the Iberian Peninsula (four in northern Portugal and one in north-west Spain) and in Meygal Massif, France (Haute-Loire). It was recently added to the French bryoflora (Hugonnot et al 2018). From the limited data available for the Iberian Peninsula (Sérgio et al 2019), the French population may represent the most important site for the plant in the world.…”

Introduction. Following on from work on the European bryophyte Red List, the taxonomically and nomenclaturally updated spreadsheets used for that project have been expanded into a new checklist for the bryophytes of Europe. Methods. A steering group of ten European bryologists was convened, and over the course of a year, the spreadsheets were compared with previous European checklists, and all changes noted. Recent literature was searched extensively. A taxonomic system was agreed, and the advice and expertise of many European bryologists sought. Key results. A new European checklist of bryophytes, comprising hornworts, liverworts and mosses, is presented. Fifteen new combinations are proposed. Conclusions. This checklist provides a snapshot of the current European bryophyte flora in 2019. It will already be out-of-date on publication, and further research, particularly molecular work, can be expected to result in many more changes over the next few years.
