Hyophila nymaniana (M. Fleisch.) M. Menzel View in CoL

in Willdenowia 22: 198. 1992. ( Pottiaceae View in CoL )

Notes – The distribution of Hyophila nymaniana is widespread but scattered in tropical regions. It is known from Central America ( Costa Rica, Mexico), Africa ( Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo) and Southeast Asia (Java, Thailand). However, despite its wide distribution range, the species does not appear to be particularly common anywhere. In a worldwide revision of the genus Hyophila Brid., SOLLMAN (2013) was able to recover 50 collections only.
