Abstract

Porella is a large genus with 86 currently accepted species. China is its center of diversity. Two narrowly distributed taxa, Porella densifolia var. robusta and P. longifolia are excluded from the liverwort flora of China because vouchered specimens are assignable to other species. The illustrations of Porella densifolia var. densifolia and P. acutifolia var. acutifolia based on Chinese plants are provided. Porella longifolia is thus far known only from Sumatra, Indonesia.
