Abstract
In connection with studies in Brachytheciaceae for Flora of Australia, the following names are lectotypified: Brachythecium rivulare B., S. & G., Hypnum convolutifolium Hampe (syn. of Scorpiurium cucullatum (Mitt.) Hedenäs), Hypnum albicans Hedw. (Brachythecium albicans (Hedw.) B., S. & G.), Hypnum austrinum Hook. f. & Wils. (Platyhypnidium austrinum (Hook. f. & Wils.) Fleisch.), Hypnum austroalpinum Hampe (syn. of Platyhypnidium austrinum (Hook. f. & Wils.) Fleisch.), Hypnum dentiferum Hampe (syn. of Rhynchostegium laxatum (Mitt.) Par.), Hypnum distratum Hampe (Rhynchostegium distratum (Hampe) Jaeg.), Hypnum laxatum Mitt. (Rhynchostegium laxatum (Mitt.) Par.), Hypnum moorei Broth. & Geh. (syn. of Platyhypnidium austrinum (Hook. f. & Wils.) Fleisch.), Hypnum paradoxum (Hook. f. & Wils. (Brachythecium paradoxum (Hook. f. & Wils.) Jaeg.), Hypnum praelongum Hedw. (Eurhynchium praelongum (Hedw.) B., S. & G.), Hypnum pumilum Wils. (Eurhynchium pumilum (Wils.) Schimp.) and Hypnum rutabulum Hedw. (Brachythecium rutabulum (Hedw.) B., S. & G.). Hypnum tenuifolium Hedw. (Rhynchostegium tenuifolium (Hedw.) Reichdt.) is neotypified and the new combination Scorpiurium cucullatum (Mitt.) Hedenäs (Hypnum cucullatum Mitt.) is made. Several other types are commented on and new synonymy is proposed. Brachythecium latinervium Hedenäs is described, and is similar to B. rutabulum (Hedw.) B. S. G., but has a wider nerve and wider median lamina cells in the stem leaves. Scleropodium australe Hedenäs, is also described, and is similar to S. caespitans (C. Müll.) L. Koch, but has a longer nerve and narrower median lamina cells in the stem leaves.
