New to Macaronesia are Aneura pseudopinguis, Didymodon brachyphyllus, Diplophyllum obtusifolium, Distichium capillaceum, and Schizymenium pontevedrense.First archipelago reports concern Brachythecium albicans (Canary Islands), Bryum dichotomum (Cape Verde), B. kunzei (Canary Islands), Homalothecium aureum (Cape Verde), Hydrogonium bolleanum (Madeira), Isopterygiopsis pulchella (Canary Islands), Pohlia cruda (Madeira), Pterygoneurum ovatum (Canary Islands), Schistidium flaccidum (Madeira), and Tortella fasciculata (Madeira). First single island reports are given for 42 species. Africa /Azores /Canary Islands /Cape Verde /Distribution data /Europe /Liverworts / Madeira /Mosses INTRODUCTION Macaronesia, in awide sense, consists of five archipelagos, including Cape Verde, Canary Islands, Selvagens, Madeira, and Azores. The islands have avolcanic origin and are situated in the Atlantic Ocean, offthe coasts of Southwestern Europe and Western Africa, between 15 and 30o N(Vanderpoorten et al.,2011). Macaronesia as awhole is recognizedasacentre of plant diversity (Myers et al.,2000). *Corresponding author: [email protected] doi/10.7872/cryb/v39.iss1.2018.61 62 G. M. Dirkse et al. The bryophyte flora of Macaronesia has been studied for about 200 years and has been summarizedtwo times (Geheeb &Herzog, 1910; Eggers, 1982). The bryophyte flora of separate Macaronesian archipelagos has been actualized recently as follows: Azores by Sjögren (2001) and Gabriel et al. (2010); Canary Islands by Dirkse et al. (1993), González-Mancebo et al. (2008), and Losada-Lima et al. (2010); Cape Verde by Frahm et al. (1996) and Patiño-Llorente &González- Mancebo (2005); and Madeira (Selvagens included) by Sérgio et al. (2006, 2008). Latest novelties have been added by González-Mancebo et al. (2009), Sérgio & González-Mancebo (2009), Ellis et al. (2010, 2011, 2012a, 2012b, 2013a, 2013b, 2015a, 2015b), Heinrichs et al. (2010), Dirkse &Losada-Lima(2011), Sérgio & Sim-Sim (2012), Draper et al. (2015), and Dirkse et al. (2016). The Mediterranean checklists of hepatics and anthocerotes (Ros et al.,2007) and mosses (Ros et al., 2013) also contain global data of separate Macaronesian archipelagos except for Cape Verde (and the Azores in the case of hepatics and anthocerotes). The growing interest of botanists in Macaronesia has lead to many new finds of bryophytes. Up till now,most finds have been kept in herbaria and remained un-published. The lack of up-to-date data on the regional distribution of bryophytes (Vanderpoorten et al.,2011) encouraged us to put our novelties together.Weaim at providing data on the distribution and taxonomy of noteworthy species, found during field work in Macaronesia. MATERIAL AND METHODS The novelties have accumulated from different projects, including: the Macaronesian and regional Canarian studies carried out by ALL, JMGM, JP,RHH, and ARR (Universidad de La Laguna); the on-going systematic investigation of the Canarian bryophyte flora by GMD (Natuurmuseum Nijmegen); collecting in Macaronesia for molecular studies by JMGM, AV, and JP (University of Liège, Universidade dos Açores); hollyday collecting in the Canary Islands and Madeira by AS and JAWN; and collections sent to us (GMD, ALL, AV)byothers. The collections have been made between 1988 and 2012. Of these, 60% was collected after 2004. The species accounts are presented in three categories: new to Macaronesia (5), new to an archipelago (10), new to one or more individual islands (42). Within these groups, the species are presented in alphabetical order.For each species the following information is given: archipelago, island, locality, Universal Transverse Mercator projection (UTM), altitude, habitat, collector(s), year of collecting, and herbarium voucher number.Distribution data are given as follows: for species new to Macaronesia at global scale; for those new to an archipelago at Macaronesian level; and for species new to individual islands, both at Macaronesian level and at island scale within the archipelago for which it is reported. In some cases taxonomical and/or morphological notes are added. UTM grid squares have been read from astandard12-channelGPS receiver. In the Canary Islands, the geographical positions, in particular altitudeswere taken from the 1:25.000MapaTopográfico Nacional de España(MTN25). Positions are given for the lower left-hand corner of 5×5kmUTM squares in wich collecting sites are located. The collections are kept in private or institutional herbaria as indicated in the text and are available for loan. References to institutional herbariaare abbreviated according to Index Herbariorum.Private herbaria are referred to by the family name of the owner. New bryophyte records from Macaronesia 63 Unless stated otherwise, nomenclature follows Ros et al. (2013) for Bryophyta and Ros et al. (2007) or Söderström et al. (2016) for Anthocerotophyta and Marchantiophyta. The names of vascular plants follow Borges et al. (2008) or Arechavaleta et al. (2010).

Aneura pseudopinguis was described from Brazil as Riccardia pseudopinguis (Herzog, 1942). Pócs placed it in Aneura (Gradstein et al.,1983). Although not accepted by Söderström et al. (2016), we follow here Sérgio &Garcia (2009) who amply discuss its taxonomy.Until recently it was considered atropical species, confined to tropical Africa and S. America (Meenks &Pócs, 1985; Wigginton, 2004). Sérgio &Garcia (2009) discovered it from Portugal and. Casas et al. (2009) found it in Spain, and later,Brugués et al. (2011) confirmed the record.

Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 11-24, 2019. Abstract: A new bryophyte checklist for Afghanistan is presented, including all published records since the beginning of collection activities in 1839 ‒1840 by W. Griffith till present. Considering several unidentified collections in various herbaria, 23 new records for Afghanistan together with the collection data can be added to the flora. Beside a new genus, Asterella , the new records include Amblystegium serpens var. serpens, Brachythecium erythrorrhizon, Bryum dichotomum, B. elwendicum, B. pallens, B. weigelii, Dichodontium palustre, Didymodon luridus, D. tectorum, Distichium inclinatum, Entosthodon muhlenbergii, Hygroamblystegium fluviatile subsp. fluviatile, Oncophorus virens, Orthotrichum rupestre var. sturmii, Pogonatum urnigerum, Pseudocrossidium revolutum, Pterygoneurum ovatum, Schistidium rivulare, Syntrichia handelii, Tortella inflexa, T. tortuosa, and Tortula muralis subsp. obtusifolia . Therewith the number of species increase to 24 liverworts, 246 mosses and one hornwort. In addition, a historical overview of the country's exploration and a full biogeography of Afghan bryophytes is given. Key words: Bryophytes, checklist, flora, phytodiversity. Introduction Recording, documentation, identification and classification of organisms is a primary tool and essential step in plant sciences and ecology to obtain detailed knowledge on the flora of a country. In many countries, such as Afghanistan, however, our knowledge on plant diversity, function, interactions of species and number of species in ecosystems is very limited and far from being complete.

Their isolation has given rise to many endemic species and subspecies, of which the great views of Tenerife Blue Chaffinch in perfect light were a highlight for many. We marvelled over the flora, so different to that of mainland Europe, and enjoyed the various species of lizards, plus the butterflies and other invertebrates we encountered. The day on La Gomera was a delight, not least for the numbers of Cory’s Shearwaters, whales and dolphins, plus the White-faced Storm Petrels we encountered. Lovely weather with plenty of sunshine, comfortable accommodation, good food and great company all made for an excellent week. Day 1 Saturday 23rd February Fly to Tenerife South – La Chafiras – Road to Vilaflor Fifteen tour group members met with Andrew and Jessica at Gatwick’s North Terminal for the 6.50am Easyjet flight to Tenerife South Airport. After a bit of a delay due to fog at Gatwick, we landed on the island at around 12.15pm, meeting up with our last group member, who had arrived on the island the previous day.

The delimitation between the two tribes is elucidated, and the systematic positions of a number of genera associatedwith these groups, i.e. genera with either aberrant morphological characters or a debated systematic position, are clarified. Together, the Inuleae and Plucheeae form a monophyletic group in which the majority of genera of Inuleae s.str. form one clade, and all the taxa from the Plucheeae together with the genera Antiphiona, Calostephane, Geigeria, Ondetia, Pechuel-loeschea, Pegolettia,andIphionopsis from Inuleae s.str. form another. Members of the Plucheeae are nestedwith genera of the Inuleae s.str., andsupport for the Plucheeae clade is weak. Consequently, the latter cannot be maintained and the two groups are treated as one tribe, Inuleae, with the two subtribes Inulinae andPlucheinae.
