Abstract

Trocholejeunea sinensis J.Wang bis, R.L.Zhu & Gradst. sp. nov. (Lejeuneaceae) is described and illustrated based on specimens collected from Guangxi and Yunnan, China. The new species differs from all other species of Trocholejeunea by the presence of an "extra" lobule tooth situated at the extreme end of the free margin, near the junction of the lobule and the lobe. A key to the species of Trocholejeunea is provided.
