The genus Ptilidium Nees was recorded for the first time from India by Mitten (1861), who described two species, viz. Ptilidium ciliare (L.) Hampe, and P. trichophyllum Mitt. [now treated under a separate genus as Blepharostoma trichophyllum (L.) Dumort.] based on the specimens collected by Sir J.D. Hooker from Sikkim. In the present state of our knowledge the genus is represented world over by three species, viz. P. ciliare (L.) Hampe, P. pulcherrimum (G. Weber) Vainio and P. californicum (Austin) Pearson (Stotler & Crandall-Stotler, 2005), of which only P. ciliare was known from India (Mitten, 1861; Chopra, 1943; Parihar & al., 1994; Singh & al., 2008). In a recent exploration in North Sikkim, some interesting corticolous specimens of the genus were collected with undifferentiated stem cells, 3-4(-5)-lobed leaves with the dorsal lobe 6, 10 cells wide at base and the dorsal sinus descending up to 2/3, 4/5 of leaf length, hence distinct from P. ciliare. A subsequent literature review (Macvicar, 1926; Schuster 1966; Paton, 1999) revealed it to be Ptilidium pulcherrimum (G. Weber) Vainio, earlier known from China, Japan, Europe and North America. The same has been described and illustrated here to facilitate its easy identification in Indian flora.- A Synoptic Flora of Liverworts and Hornworts of Manipur

The flora includes 111 species and one variety belonging to 46 genera and 20 families of liverworts and seven species belonging to three genera in family Anthocerotaceae of the hornworts from Manipur. Of these 92 taxa (91 species and 01 variety) are recorded for the first time from the State of Manipur. Bazzania orientalis (Steph.) Parihar, is new to the Himalayan region, whereas Porella madagascariensis (Nees & Mont.) Trevis. and Phaeoceros kashyapii A.K. Asthana & S.C. Srivast are new to the East Himalayan bryo-geographical region.Keywords

The Little Andaman Island lies a little towards the south of the Great Andaman group (North, Middle and South Andaman) from which it is separated by the Duncan Passage and covers an area of 739 sq. km. It is separated from the Nicobars by the 10° (Ten Degree) Channel. The climate is warm and humid tropical with the temperature ranging between 20°-32° C. The island receives rainfall twice a year, between May-September from the Southwest monsoon and October-December from the Northeast monsoon, resulting in an average annual rainfall of 3000-3500 mm. The mean relative humidity is between 82-85% throughout the year (Banerjee & Guha Roy, 2002).
During a recent collection of liverworts from Little Andaman Island, an area which has not so far been investigated for its bryoflora, 12 species were collected belonging to family Lejeuneaceae (11 species) and Marchantiaceae (01) species. This includes Cololejeunea gottschei (Steph.) Mizut., Lejeunea anisophylla Mont, and Marchantia linearis Lehm. & Lindenb. As new records for the bryoflora of Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
All the specimens cited in the text have been deposited in the Cryptogamic section of the Central National Herbarium, Botanical Survey of India, Howrah (CAL).
