Gymnomitriaceae Klinggräff (1858: 16) was thoroughly treated by Váňa et al. (2010). Since the publication, a series of papers have shown that the circumscription of the family and genera within the family must be revised.

  Söderström et al. (2013) outlined the current status of the family Lophocoleaceae. Following their concept several new combinations are needed, most of which are made here. While many of the taxa treated below need to be lectotypified, we are generally not doing that here.

When describing the family Hygrobiellaceae, Konstantinova & Vilnet (2010) did not cite the basionym, but a combination of the taxon, thus not fulfilling the requirement in ICN Art. 41.5 (McNeill et al. 2012) of a full and direct citation of the basionym. This is corrected here.

Early Land

When Hodgson (1964) proposed the new family Phyllothalliaceae together with the initially monotypic genus Phyllothallia Hodgson (1964: 247) based on Phyllothallia nivicola Hodgson (1964: 247), she mentioned “This new family is not a splinter entity from any already recognized family, but is originated to contain a genus which in vegetative characters at least is completely different from any known genus. The characters of the family are those of the genus”. The first sentence specifies the features in which Phyllothalliaceae is different from the other families but not how these features differ and so it does not satisfy the requirement of Art. 38.1(a) for a description/diagnosis (see: Art. 38. 2. Ex. 4). Although Grolle (1972: 216) discussed the validity of the family and considered the second sentence fulfil the requirements for the valid publication, ICN (McNeill et al. 2012) allows a single description/diagnosis for monotypic genus and species only. Hence, the family Phyllothalliaceae lacked a description/diagnosis which was needed when proposed and it has never been validly published until now. In order to be able to use the name in the forthcoming world checklist of Hornworts and Liverworts (Söderström et al., in prep.), the family is validated here. Note that a Latin description is no longer needed under the current ICN (McNeill et al. 2012).

The family Cephaloziellaceae is here defined in a very broad sense based mainly on molecular studies and includes morphologically diverse elements. Necessary new combinations are made in addition to some transfers and new synonyms in Cylindrocolea and Cephaloziella.

  Cooper (2013) summarizes the current status of the family Lepidoziaceae and presents a new classification based on recent phylogenetic studies (Cooper et al. 2011, 2012). The classification requires many transfers of taxa and the new combinations and a new synonym are reported here. Ceramanus gen. nov. is newly described and Tricholepidozia comb. et stat. nov. elevated to generic rank. Several of the species require lectotypification, but this is beyond the scope of this nomenclatural note and lectotypes are designated only in two unambiguous cases.

As If

During the preparation of the forthcoming world checklist of hornworts and liverworts (Söderström et al., in press.) it was noted that a few taxa need to be validated or combined. The subfamily name Balantiopsidoideae has been used as if it has been an autonym of the family Balantiopsidaceae H.Buch (1955: 23) (e.g. Grolle 1972, Engel & Smith Merrill 1997). However, as autonyms do not exist on any other taxonomic level than genus or species (ICN 22.3, 26.3; McNeill et al. 2012) all subfamilies need to be accompanied by a valid description or diagnoses or a reference to an effectively published description or diagnoses (ICN Art. 39.1).

Bryophytes are the second largest group of land plants and are also known as the amphibians of the plant kingdom. 67 species of bryophytes have been reported from select locations across the state of Gujrat. The status of family fissidentaceae which is a large moss family is being presented in this paper. Globally the family consists of 10 genera but only one genus, Fissidens Hedw. has been collected from Gujarat. Fissidens is characterized by a unique leaf structure and shows the presence of three distinct lamina, the dorsal, the ventral and the vaginant lamina. A total of 8 species of Fissidens have been reported from the state based on vegetative characters as no sporophyte stages were collected earlier. Species reported from the neighboring states also showed the absence of sporophytes. The identification of different species was difficult due to substantial overlap in vegetative characters. Hence a detailed study on the diversity of members of Fissidentaceae in Gujarat was carried out between November 2013 and February 2015. In present study 8 distinct species of Fissidens have been collected from different parts of the state. Three species Fissidens splachnobryoides Broth., Fissidens zollingerii Mont. and Fissidens curvato-involutus Dixon. have been identified while the other five are still to be identified. Fissidens zollingerii Mont. and Fissidens xiphoides M. Fleisch., which have been reported as distinct species are actually synonyms according to TROPICOS database. The presence of sexual reproductive structures and sporophytes for several Fissidens species are also being reported for the first time from the state.
