Identity of north African endemic bryophytes, 3, with special emphasis in Funaria altissima
The types of five taxa described with material from northern Africa have been revised, yielding the following results: Barbula commutata var. erosa Corb. is synomyzed with Streblotrichum convolutum var. commutatum; Bryum trabutii Thér. with Ptychostomum rubens; Thamnium alopecurum var. decipiens Co...

The types of five taxa described with material from northern Africa have been revised, yielding the following results: Barbula commutata var. erosa Corb. is synomyzed with Streblotrichum convolutum var. commutatum; Bryum trabutii Thér. with Ptychostomum rubens; Thamnium alopecurum var. decipiens Corb. with Scorpiurium circinatum; and Trichostomum mediterraneum var. algeriae Müll. Hal. ex Geh. with Hydrogonium bolleanum. Funaria altissima Dixon is recognized as a distinct species, for which we provide a full description, photographs, and a key to the more closely species. Lectotypes have been designated for all names except for F. altissima. The identity of two nomina nuda is also resolved: Funaria hygrometrica var. dentata Corb. ex Maire & Werner, corresponds to typical Funaria hygrometrica, and Zygodon dimorphus Thér. ex Jelenc is here identified as Grimmia torquata¸ an interesting addition to the bryophyte flora of Morocco and continental Africa. Ptychostomum rubens is reported for the first time from Algeria.
