The greater Mymensingh district of Bangladesh, particularly the hilly areas are rich in Bryophyte flora. The present paper on class Hepaticopsida (Liverworts) and Anthocerotopsida (Hornworts) represents primary as well as secondary data collection and includes an account of 48 species under 12 genera, nine families and four orders. An alphabetic arrangement of taxa with short description, habitats, localities, names of collectors with dates and collection numbers are provided. IntroductionThe greater Mymensingh district, particularly the hilly areas are good abodes of Bryophytes. A reasonably good amount of taxonomic works have been done on Bryophytes of Bangladesh but not enough has been done on its distribution.Khan (1955, 1957) for the first time, worked on Liverworts and reported several species including some new species but none of these was from greater Mymensingh district. Tixier (1967) collected and reported a good number of Liverworts in a checklist but all these were from Chittagong region. After a long gap of years, Chakravarty (1981,1983) reported five Liverworts and two Hornworts, out of which only one species, Anthoceros laevis L. was from Mymensingh district. Kamruzzaman (1995) gave an illustrated account of 45 species of Riccia L. which was later included by Hadiuzzaman (2007) in the Encyclopedia of Flora and Fauna of Bangladesh, many of which were collected of the greater Mymensingh district. Banu (1991) for the first time, gave a district-wise distribution of Bryophyta but that was confined only to mosses. Later Banu-Fattah (1998) dealt with Bryophyte flora of Chittagong zone and reported several species of Hepaticopsida and Anthocerotopsida. Recently, Banu-Fattah and Sarker (2007) presented a comprehensive list of mosses under the class Bryopsida from greater Mymensingh district. The present paper is the continuation of the previous paper on Bryophytes dealing with the rest of the classes i.e. Hepaticopsida and Anthocerotopsida.The present paper is based on the specimens collected by the authors as well as many other collectors and all the species previously reported from this region. There are some unpublished reports on the presence of many other species but these have not been included here since complete informations are not available. The present study on Hepaticopsida and Anthocerotopsida includes an account of 48 species under 12 genera, nine families and four orders.

“…Until now, the species was unknown from Turkey and Southwest Asia (Noguchi & Iwatsuki, 1987;Frahm, 1993;Zhi-Hua & Sinikka, 1994;Suleiman & Edwards, 2002;Uyar & Cetin, 2004;Kürschner & Erdað, 2005;Frey et al, 2006;Banu-Fattah & Sarker, 2007;Lüth & Frahm, 2008; Frey, 2011;Müller, 2012). It is the first report of the genus Trematodon and the family Bruchiaceae not only in Turkey, but in the whole Southwest Asia.…”

The moss specimens were collected from various localities in Eastern Black Sea region in Turkey (Artvin province; Hopa and Arhavi Districts), which is located in caucasian part of Turkey. A total of 146 moss taxa (belonging to 73 genera and 33 families) were recorded within the study area. Among of these, Trematodon longicollis Michaux was determined as new to Turkey. Also, this is the first record of the genus, as well as the family Bruchiaceae from the Southwest Asia.

“…Distichophyllum schmidtii Broth., a Pleurocarpous moss and Funaria hygrometrica Hedw., an Acrocarpous moss were two new records from Bangladesh (3,4) . Later on 51 species of bryopsida (5) and 48 species of Hepaticopsida and Anthoceropsida from Mymensingh were recorded (6) . Despite some sporadic studies on some groups of Bryophytes carried out in the recent past, much effort need to be made to explore the bryophyte flora of the country.…”

A leafy liverwort, Jungermannia exertifolia Steph. (Hepaticae, Jungermanniales,) has been reported from the Adampur Forest of Moulvibazar district as a new species record for Bangladesh. Jungermannia exertifolia is characterized by its flattened leaves and rhizoids arising ventrally all along the stem with alternate leaves, which are obliquely inserted and succubous in arrangement. It grows in the shady habitats of Adampur forest on the surface of the hilly rocks. Detailed taxonomy of the newly reported species along with its photographs is provided. Dhaka Univ. J. Biol. Sci. 29(1): 133-136, 2020 (January)
