Abstract

Five liverwort species (Cheilolejeunea krakakammae, Cololejeunea latilobula, Cylindrocolea abyssinica, Telaranea nematodes, Thysananthus humilis) and five moss species (Calyptothecium planifrons, Calymperes tenerum, Fissidens usambaricus, Leptotrichella nitidula, Trichostomum lorifolium) are reported as new for the bryophyte flora of Angola. Fossombronia indica is reported as new for the country of São Tomé and Príncipe, Gulf of Guinea, West Africa. An additional two hepatic species (Lejeunea acuta, Solenostoma dusenii) are reported as new for Príncipe.
