Since de appearance of the “Catalogue of the genus Lejeunea Lib. (Hepaticae) of Latin America” (Reiner-Drehwald 1999), many new publications dealing with the genus and other members of the Lejeuneaceae have been published. One of the aims of this list is to bring up to date the status of Lejeunea species by citing the new references.
 

The format of this list follows basically the previous catalogue.

  • Species and infraspecific taxa described under Lejeunea are listed in alphabetical order. Bibliographic references for Lejeunea species are cited only for taxa included neither in the Index Hepaticarum (Geissler & Bischler 1987) nor in the mentioned catalogue (Reiner-Drehwald 1999).
  • Accepted names are in boldface.
  • Origin: countries of origin of the “type” or “original material” (invalid names) of the taxon are cited.
  • Reference: selected references where species descriptions or comments are given are cited here. This section does not attempt to be complete and will be actualized in the future.

The major difference to the previous catalogue is the geographical area covered. While the first catalogue included species whose type material come from Am 2 to Am 6 (Mexico and West Indies to Chile and Argentina; as defined in the Index Muscorum), this list will also include in the future Am 1 (N. America, Bermudas), and those species whose type material come from Europe and Africa and are known to occur in America. A few species of this regions are already cited. For Europe and Macaronesia the check-list by Grolle & Long (2000) and for Africa (Afr 2 – 4) the catalogues of Grolle (1995), Wigginton & Grolle (supplemented by A.Gyarmati, 1996) and Wigginton (2002) should be consulted.

The alphabetical lists of Lejeunea species are therefore separated according to the origin of their types in: America, Europe, Africa.
