A total of 1144 species and infraspecific taxa are recorded for Madagascar composed of 751 mosses, 390 liverworts and 3 hornworts. 28.67% of the species reported for the Island are endemics. Twenty-four taxa are newly recorded for Madagascar and two of them, Fissidens cyathaeicola Brugg.Nann. and Taxithelium nepalense (Schwägr.) Broth. are reported for the first time for the Sub-Saharan Africa region. Hornworts / liverworts / mosses / Madagascar INTRODUCTION Madagascar is located in the Indian Ocean, between 11˚57’ and 25˚39’ latitude, 400 km from the eastern coast of Africa. It is the world’s fourth largest island, with a total area of 590 000 km2, the distance between Cap d’Ambre * Author for correspondence and reprints: marlinelova@gmail.com 200 L. Marline et al. (North) and Cap Sainte Marie (South) is nearly 1570 km, and the distance from West to East is around 560 km (Ingram & Dawson, 2005). The island consists of a central plateau of volcanic origin which culminates to the north in peaks over 2800 meters. To the East, the plateau falls directly and abruptly onto a narrow coastal plain, while in the West it descends more slowly to a broader plain, along the Mozambique Channel. The island is considered a biodiversity hot spot: 85% of the flora (Gautier & Goodman, 2003) and 90% of the fauna are endemics (Goodman, 2008). The tropical forests of Madagascar are among the highest priority areas in the world for biodiversity conservation (Myers et al., 2000). Eighty percent of Madagascar’s original forests have disappeared in the 1500-2000 years since the arrival of the first humans (Harper et al., 2007). At present, only 12% of the surface of the island is covered by natural forest. These remant forests are highly endangered by threat of deforestation. Cultivation involving slash and burn agriculture (locally called tavy) is the main cause of deforestation. Tavy consists of clearing and burning native forest. The burnt area is used for various plantations until the soils are impoverished, and then abandoned (Ingram & Dawson, 2005). The increasing population and the absence of resources and techniques to improve agricultural productivity and pasture lands threaten to destroy what remains of this unique biology (Sussman et al., 1994). The classification by Du Puy and Morat (1996) divides the primary vegetation of Madagascar into two formations: the evergreen and the deciduous formations. The evergreen formations (East and Center) are: Coastal forest (East); Evergreen humid forest, low elevation (0-800 m); Evergreen humid forest, mid elevation (800-1800 m); Evergreen humid forest, lower montagne (1800-2000 m); Mountain, Schrubland (Philipia) (> 1800 m); Evergreen, sclerophyllous (Uapaca) woodland (800-2000 m) and Marshland (0-800 m) The deciduous formations (West and South) are: Coastal forest (West); Deciduous, seasonally dry, western forest (0-800 m); Deciduous, dry, southern forest and schrubland (0-300 m). The distribution of different vegetation formations in Madagascar is shown in Fig. 1. The study on the flora of Madagascar has, for a long time, focused on vascular plants, with few studies being undertaken on bryophytes. Indeed, it was only during the 19th century that collectors first began to collect bryophytes in the Island (Dorr, 1997). There are more than 40 botanists that collected bryophytes on the island during the 19th century. The majority of which were French botanists and explorers. Collections through this period, by Cardot, Tixier, Cramers, Chénagon, and Perrier de la Bathie are mainly located at Paris herbarium (PC). Biographical data of bryophyte collectors are reported in Dorr (1997). The oldest collections are located at PC. From 1960, date of the independence of Madagascar, duplicates of the collections were hosted at the National Herbarium of Madagascar (TAN), of which more than a thousand samples still need to be identified. Nowadays, collections of Madagascan bryophytes are hosted in different herbaria around the world. This article aims to provide a comprehensive list of bryophytes from Madagascar based on literature records and additional collections, as well as provide information on the type specimens for endemic species. We hope that this preliminary work will be helpful for other bryologists and will stimulate and facilitate future work on the bryoflora of Madagascar. Checklist of the bryophytes of Madagascar 201 Fig. 1. Vegetation map of Madagascar (Du Puy & Morat, 1996) (reproduction with the permission of IRD). METHODS This checklist was compiled from the literature, data from various herbaria, and recent collections by the authors. This work was greatly facilitated by the ground work of O’Shea (2006) and Wigginton (2009) for their respective checklists of mosses, liverworts and hornworts for sub-Saharan Africa. 202 L. Marline et al. Presentation of the list – Synopsis of families and genera Families are ranked alphabetically within each order and sub order. The numbers in brackets against each genus indicate the number of taxa within the genus. Synopses of genera and family are based on the work of CrandallStotler et al. (2009) for liverworts, Renzaglia et al. (2009) for hornworts and Goffinet et al. (2009) for mosses. – Format of the list The taxa are arranged alphabetically within the three divisions of bryophytes: Marchantiophyta (liverworts), Anthocerotophyta (hornworts) and Bryophyta (mosses) and within each family. Scientific names appear in bold italic type followed by the authors who discribed the taxa. Endemic taxa are followed by “End”. New records from Madagascar are preceded by *. Herbarium abbreviations follow Thiers (2010). Uncompletely identified species that have been reported by O’Shea (2006) and Wigginton (2009) are taken into account in this checklist. The references following each taxon are the record of the presence of the taxon in Madagascar, it refers mainly to the work of O’Shea (2006) and Wigginton (2009). For new records from herbarium specimens, the references following the taxa are: locality, habitat, altitude, geographic coordinates, collection date, collector(s), collector’s number, and herbarium. For new records that were recently collected during the BRYOLAT expedition in November 2009 and other fieldtrips, as well as for type specimen information, references following the species names are: locality, microhabitat, geographic coordinates, date, collector, collection number, and determinator. When “unknown” is specified after type, this means that no information was given by the specimens, except “Madagascar” as main locality. “N.S.” is used when the holotype or herbarium are “not specified” and “#” is used when the information is considered doubtful.

The attribution of those species to the genus Riccardia has not been revised. But since the revision of the genus Riccardia from Africa and Madagascar is now in a progress, most of the morphological and reproductive characters of those three species seem to fit with those of Riccardia. We decided to keep the name used by Grolle (1995) and Wigginton (2009). CONCLUSION In total 1144 bryophyte species and infraspecific taxa, including 751 mosses, 390 liverworts and 3 hornworts are reported from Madagascar (Table 1). The following families: Dicranaceae (83 species and infraspecific taxa), Orthotrichaceae (66 species and infraspecific taxa) and Bryaceae (44 species and infraspecific taxa) are the most speciose for mosses and the Lejeuneaceae (203 species and infraspecific taxa), Frullaniaceae (38 species and infraspecific taxa) and Plagiochilaceae (21 species and infraspecific taxa) for liverworts. The lack of reported hornwort taxa undoubtedly represents a significant bias in historic collecting effort especially since more than 5 hornwort taxa are reported for Réunion Island, a landmass both a fraction of the age and size of Madagascar (Ah-Peng et al., 2010). Future floristic exploration in Madagascar should target such little known groups as they are likely to harbour a wealth of unknown diversity. In this checklist, 13 mosses, 10 liverworts and one species of hornwort are newly recorded for Madagascar. The majority of these new records are reported from collections in the National Herbarium of Madagascar (TAN) and from recent collections by the authors. Two species: Fissidens cyathaeicola Brugg.Nann. and Taxithelium nepalense (Schwägr.) Broth. are reported for the first time for the Sub-Saharan Africa region. The bryoflora of Madagascar displays remarkably high levels of endemism, 33.82% of mosses and 18.97% of liverworts are unique to the island, providing ample support for its status as a global hotspot of biodiversity. The moss Table 1.

Marline et al. families with the largest number of endemic species are the Dicranaceae (41/83), Orthotrichaceae (38/66) and Sematophyllaceae (22/40). Of the 74 endemic liverwort species recorded on the island, 59 belong to the family Lejeuneaceae, of which the most important is the epiphyllous genus Cololejeunea which has radiated throughout Madagascar and the neighbouring islands (Pócs, 1997). The number of endemics should be regarded with caution as many of the species were described a long time ago and have yet to form part of a recent revision: this figure will need to be continuously updated. To help in further research e.g. taxonomic revision, we listed the type specimens of endemic species including specimen information and host herbarium. Unfortunately a few proportion (18) of type specimens are poorly detailed, often providing only “Madagascar” as the type location, we did not manage to identify the host herbarium of 56 endemic species. Since much of the original bryological exploration of Madagascar took place during the late 1800’s (Dorr, 1997) it is not known what proportion, if any, of the recorded taxa have been lost due to anthropogenic destruction of habitats for farming and logging. Many of the sites which were frequented by early bryologists have been lost due to such activities. New inventories of intact and unexplored habitats on the island should prove invaluable for verifying many of the old records presented in this checklist and will undoubtedly reveal many new and interesting records for the island. Much work remains to be done to improve knowledge on the diversity and distribution of bryophytes in Madagascar. For example, collections of bryophytes in the National Herbarium of Madagascar (TAN) need to be revised and fully identified. More fieldwork to collect bryophytes in poorly investigated areas should be planned, especially in areas such as the dry forests. Acknowledgments.
