Introduction

The Cape Verdean bryophyte flora comprises representatives of various floristic elements including Afrotropical, Neotropical, Mediterranean and Asiatic elements, together with some endemic taxa. However, the knowledge of Cape Verdean bryophytes lags far behind that of vascular plants.

Methods

A total of seven sites were sampled during 2016 in the Cape Verde archipelago, one on São Vicente and six on Santo Antão.

Results and conclusions

Five species are reported new to Cape Verde, Cheilolejeunea rigidula (Nees ex Mont.) R.M.Schust., Riccia trabutiana Steph., Lewinskya acuminata (H.Philib.) F.Lara, Garilleti & Goffinet, Lindbergia patentifolia Dixon and Timmiella cameruniae Broth. The presence of Porella canariensis (F.Weber) Underw in the archipelago is also confirmed. Additionally, Frullania spongiosa Steph., Bryum dichotomum Hedw., Cryptoleptodon longisetus (Mont.) Enroth and Didymodon hastatus (Mitt.) R.H.Zander are reported for the first time from Santo Antão. Cheilolejeunea rigidula, Lindbergia patentifolia and Timmiella cameruniae are new to Macaronesia and a description of the last taxon is presented.

对佛得角群岛苔藓植物知识的贡献，重点是圣安唐和圣维森特

介绍

佛得角苔藓植物区系包括各种植物区系元素的代表，包括非洲热带、新热带、地中海和亚洲元素，以及一些地方性分类群。然而，佛得角苔藓植物的知识远远落后于维管植物。

方法

2016 年，佛得角群岛共对七个地点进行了采样，一个在圣维森特，六个在圣安唐。

结果和结论

五种报道新佛得角，Cheilolejeunea rigidula（内斯前山）RMSchust。, Riccia trabutiana Steph., Lewinskya acuminata (H.Philib.) F.Lara, Garilleti & Goffinet, Lindbergia Patentifolia Dixon 和Timmiella cameruniae Broth。也证实了群岛中存在Porella canariensis (F.Weber) Underw。此外，Frullania spongosa Steph.、Bryum dichotomum Hedw.、Cryptoleptodon longisetus (Mont.) Enroth 和Didymodon hastatus (Mitt.) RHZander 首次从 Santo Antão 报道。硬毛绦虫、Lindbergia Patentifolia和Timmiella cameruniae是 Macaronesia 的新物种，并提供了对最后一个分类单元的描述。
