Abstract

Prior to the publication of the world checklist of hornworts and liverworts (Söderström et al., in press) some taxa still need to be validated, transferred or synonymized. We are here dealing with the remaining nomenclatural issues among the Anthocerotophyta. Several taxa have not been typified properly and we are here suggesting several new lectotypes to stabilize the nomenclature.
