Checklist of the bryophytes of Tamil Nadu, India

Checklist of the bryophytes of Tamil Nadu, India

A. E. D. Daniels
Botany Department, Scott Christian College, Nagercoil - 629 003, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract: The checklist reports 712 taxa of bryophytes from Tamil Nadu, India, comprising 211 taxa in 56 genera and 32 families of liverworts, 8 taxa in 4 genera and 2 families of hornworts, and 493 taxa in 189 genera and 44 families of mosses. Literature sources for Tamil Nadu records are included for each taxon, and an extensive synonymy is provided. For currently accepted taxa, the details of types from Tamil Nadu are indicated. A map of Tamil Nadu, a synopsis of families and genera, and a bibliography are provided. INTRODUCTION India is one of the 12 megabiodiversity countries in the world (Nayar, 1996). The large area and the variety of phytoclimatic conditions met within its different biogeographical zones contribute to the great diversity of the Indian flora (Singh, 1997; 2001). These biogeographical zones, with diverse topographical variations and climatic conditions, have been divided into seven bryogeographical regions. They are (1) Western Himalayas, (2) Eastern Himalayas, (3) Punjab and West Rajasthan, (4) Gangetic Plains, (5) Central India, (6) Western and Eastern Ghats and (7) Deccan Plateau (Pand 1958). Recently, Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal have been proposed as the eighth region to be included (Singh & Semwal, 1995). Currently, about 2480 taxa of bryophytes (including infraspecific taxa) are reported from India (including island groups, and Sikkim), comprising about 722 taxa of liverworts in 128 genera and 52 families, 36 taxa in 6 genera and 2 families of hornworts (M.J.Wigginton database) and about 1623 taxa in 342 genera and 57 families of mosses (Lal, 2005). Tamil Nadu, formerly known as the Madras State, is situated in the eastern part of the southern tip of peninsular India and comprises part of the Deccan Plateau, the Western Ghats (includes Nilgiris, Anamalais, Palnis and Agasthyamalai) and the Eastern Ghats (includes Shervaroys) bryogeographical regions. It lies between 8 5 and 13 34 N, and 76 14 and 80 21 E. It is bounded on the west by the Kerala State, on the northwest by the Karnataka State, on the north by the Andhra Pradesh State, on the east by the Bay of Bengal, on the south by the Indian Ocean and on the southwest by the Arabian Sea. Sri Lanka is very near Tamil Nadu on the southeast separated by the Gulf of Mannar. The total area of Tamil Nadu is 130,058 km2 and occupies 3.96% of the total geographical area of India. It has a coastline of about 920 km and a land boundary of 1200 km. The climate in general is warm except on mountains and hence the temperature ranges from 40 C in the plains during summer to 2 C in winter on elevated

mountains including the Nilgiris and the Palnis, where many peaks exceed 2000 m elevation and the highest, Dodabetta Peak, rises to 2637 m. Similarly, the rainfall ranges from 640 mm along the eastern region to 3000 mm along the western and southwestern regions of the state as these two regions receive both the north-east and south-west monsoon rains (Annamalai, 2004).

Tamil Nadu has a forest cover of 21,482 km2 (Annamalai, 2004). This is mostly confined to the Western and the Eastern Ghats. As the terrain varies from sea level to over 2600 m., the vegetation types also vary accordingly, from scrub jungles in the foothills, to hill-top wet evergreen forests above 2000 m. The forest types seen along the Western Ghats of the state include scrub jungles, dry deciduous forests, moist deciduous forests, semi-evergreen forests, moist evergreen forests and hill-top wet evergreen forests with grassy swards. However, grassy swards are often met with in dry deciduous forests. The forests of the Eastern Ghats are mostly scrub to dry deciduous. Along

Checklist of the bryophytes of Tamil Nadu, India

the East Coast there is a large tract of mangrove forests. Unfortunately, the forests in Tamil Nadu are now fragmented, particularly those along the hill tracts due to the introduction of various plantation crops such as coffee, tea and pine by the British as early as the beginning of the 19th century. Plantations of Eucalyptus, Acacia, teak, rubber, Albizia and clove were also introduced by the State Forest Department till the late 20th century. On the other hand, private estates have contributed considerably to the destruction of the rich forests of the Western Ghats. Added to these, holiday resorts, educational institutions, factories/industries, etc. have largely contributed to the annihilation of these forests in a number of areas making them fragmentary. Thus, the forests in Tamil Nadu have suffered destruction for over a century. This has led to a great loss of biodiversity, particularly the lower groups of organisms, due to loss of habitats and an increasing environmental pollution, and bryophytes are no exception. Consequently, the majority of bryophytes have become threatened in Tamil Nadu (personal observation). As no Conservation Assessment Management Plan (CAMP) has been done for any group of bryophytes in India, the exact status of these plants is still not known. Hence, a bryophyte checklist for Tamil Nadu can act as baseline information for the conservation of this group, for bryologists and others interested in bryophytes. History of bryophyte recording in Tamil Nadu The present knowledge on the bryophytes of Tamil Nadu began with studies by European bryologists during the 19th century. Montagne (1842a) reported 66 species of mosses from the Nilgiri Hills (Tamil Nadu) in Cryptogamae Nilgherienses, and Mller (1853) reported 56 species of mosses from the Nilgiris in Musci Neilgherrensis. Mitten (1859) reported over 700 species in his Musci Indiae Orientalis, of which 145 were from Tamil Nadu, and Dixon (1914) reported 35 species from the state. From the Western Ghats of Madurai (Tamil Nadu), Potier de la Varde (19221924) reported 48 species in his Musci Madurensis, 49 species in Nouvelles herborisations dans le sud de lInde (1925) and 7 species in Musci novi Indici (1928). Dixon and Potier de la Varde reported 80 species from India in their Contribution la flore bryologique de lInde meridionale (1927), and 56 species from Tamil Nadu in Nouvelle contribution la flore bryologique de lInde (1930). Foreau (1961, 1964) listed 368 species of mosses from the Palni hills (W. Ghats of Madurai) which included 95 new species and 15 new varieties. Gangulees invaluable Mosses of eastern India and adjacent regions (19691980) provides some information on the habitats and distribution of south Indian mosses and occasionally mentions occurrences in Tamil Nadu, though site names and collections data are usually lacking. Wadhwa (1969, 1971) provided a partial species checklist with references to moss records from peninsula India, including the Western Ghats and Nilgiris. More recent works include Matthew (1973) and Mohamed (1981, 1982, 1984) on Rhodobryum commersonii (Schwgr.) Paris and R. aubertii (Schwgr.) Thr. in South India, on Bryum wightii Mitt. and related species, and a synopsis of the genus Rhodobryum in Asia respectively. Ochi (1985) published an annotated list of mosses of the subfamily Bryoideae in South, Southeast and East Asia, Ellis (1989) made a revision on the genus Calymperes in southern India and neighbouring islands. Lal (2005) published a checklist of Indian mosses but did not specifically mention reports from Tamil Nadu, but rather collectively as 'South India': these records are not cited in this checklist. Similarly, the present knowledge of the liverworts and hornworts of Tamil Nadu began with Montagne (1842b), who reported 34 species of liverworts from the Nilgiri Hills (Tamil Nadu) in Cryptogamae Nilgherienses. Subsequently, Mitten (1861) reported 26 species from Tamil Nadu in Hepaticae Indiae Orientalis. The works of Stephani (19001924), Benedix (1953), Chopra (1938), Udar (1976), Udar and Srivastava (1975, 1977), Asthana and Srivastava (1991), Asthana et al. (1995), Nath and Asthana (1998), Parihar et al., (1994), Singh (1994, 2002) and Srivastava and Srivastava (2002), and many others, contain records of collections from India, among which are records from Tamil Nadu.

The most recent studies of the bryophytes of Tamil Nadu are published in Daniels (1998, 2001, 2004), Daniels & Daniel (20022008), Daniels and Kariyappa (2007), Kumar and Maniselvan (1994), Maniselvan and Kumar (1998, 2000a, b) and Srivastava and Verma (2005). Despite the relatively long history of bryological recording in Tamil Nadu, collecting has been sparse and sporadic, and much of the state remains bryologically unexplored or underexplored. Further study is expected to yield many additions to the checklist. The checklist is not a taxonomic document, and no new taxonomy or nomenclature is published here: it is merely a compilation of published records (plus those in Daniels (2003), an unpublished thesis), and no claim is made as to the correctness of all identifications. However, the occurrence of some species in Tamil Nadu is considered uncertain or erroneous on taxonomic or geographical grounds, and they are separately listed. Some other species that remain in the main list might be of uncertain occurrence in Tamil Nadu, and require confirmation. The bryophyte flora Tamil Nadu supports approximately 29 % of the Indian liverwort flora, 22 % of the hornwort flora and 30 % of the moss flora. Indian endemic species are well represented in the state. Of the approximately 152 liverwort taxa endemic to India (including all island groups and Sikkim), 30 liverworts (19%) are known from Tamil Nadu, ten of which are apparently endemic to the state. Of the 19 Indian endemic hornworts, two (10 %) are currently known from Tamil Nadu. About 65 Indian endemic mosses are known from Tamil Nadu, about 48 of these apparently endemic to Tamil Nadu. SYNOPSIS OF FAMILIES AND GENERA Families are arranged alphabetically within each Division. The placement of genera in the families of the Marchantiophyta follows Crandall-Stotler, Stotler & Long (2008), for the Anthocerotophyta, Duff et al.(2007) and for the Bryophyta, Goffinet et al. (2004). The checklist includes 712 taxa of bryophytes, comprising 211 taxa in 56 genera and 32 families of the Marchantiophyta (liverworts), 9 taxa in 4 genera and 2 families of the Anthocerotophyta (hornworts) and 493 taxa in 189 genera and 44 families of the Bryophyta (mosses). The number of accepted taxa in each genus reported from Tamil Nadu is given in brackets following the genus name, and excludes the taxa that are listed under 'doubtful and erroneous records'.

CHECKLIST OF BRYOPHYTES The checklist is arranged in alphabetical order of taxon name within each of the three divisions, Marchantiophyta, Anthocerotophyta and Bryophyta. Currently accepted names are shown in large bold face italic font; those in large regular font are unpublished, and some identifications may need confirmation (the latter are excluded from the species totals above). Names placed in synonymy are indented and in a smaller font, together with the owning taxon and, in square brackets, a literature source for the synonymy. For synonymies, an = sign is used throughout, no distinction being made between nomenclatural and taxonomic synonyms. The authorities of names follow The International Plant Names Index (the successor to Brummitt & Powell, 1992), including the suppression of spaces between initials and surname Details of collections, with the source reference(s) in square brackets, are provided for each taxon. Where known, the place name, date, collector, specimen number and deposit herbarium are included, but in older literature, details are often sparse and may only include a place name. Type material is also mentioned. Some place names are spelled in various ways in the literature, and this is particularly marked in respect of the Nilgiri Hills (Neel-Gherry, Nilgherries, Nilghiri, etc). Early records from localities identified only as 'Madras' should be treated with caution, since the state of Madras formerly included large parts of present-day Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka. It is

Lophocolea (Dumort.) Dumort. In this checklist, species of Lophocolea are assigned to Chiloscyphus in line with recent molecular studies (He-Nygren & Piippo 2003, Hentschel et al. (2006). However, this assignment is not universally accepted, and there may be a case for retaining Lophocolea as a distinct genus (Crandall-Stotler et al. 2008).

Bischler-Causse (1989) included Tamil Nadu in the distribution of the latter species on the basis of at least one Chopra record of M. palmata. However, she also remarked that all the Indian specimens she had seen named as M. palmata - for example, that "those cited in Kashyap (1929), Chopra (1943) and Singh (1966), belonged to M. papillata subsp. grossibarbara, except for the specimen from Tamil Nadu drawn by Srinivasan (1939 [1940]), which is of M. pappeana subsp. robusta". Srinivasan commented that "M. palmata" was very common around Ootacamund. Bischler-Causse (1989) confirmed M. emarginata subsp. emarginata from the neighbouring states of Karnataka and Kerala.

DOUBTFUL AND ERRONEOUS RECORDS


MARCHANTIOPHYTA

Acrolejeunea fertilis (Reinw., Blume & Nees) Schiffn. listed in Bapna & Kachroo (2000b) on the basis of a report by Rao & Udar (1957) of a collection from Yercaud. However, the collection is sterile and the description does not match that of Acrolejeunea fertilis. The Yercaud collection is not mentioned in the major revision of Acrolejeunea (Gradstein 1975). Asterella vulcanica (Schiffn.) Pand et al. known only from Java; records from S. India (Chopra 1938) are considered extremely doubtful (Long 2006). Calycularia crispula Mitt. Madras, Iyengar, 1922, Bh. 33 (xa) [Chopra 1938: 244]. To be reassessed. This species is not accepted from southern India by Bapna & Kachroo (2000b), and the record is not certainly from Tamil Nadu. Cyathodium tuberosum Kashyap Although Srivastava & Dixit 1996a: 170 include 'Madras' in their summary of the species range, their distribution map (p. 209) does not show a locality within Tamil Nadu. Fossombronia cristula Austin an endemic of the United States (Krayesky et al. 2005).

Frullania glomerata (Lehm. & Lindenb.) Mont. listed from the Nilgiri Mts. by Montagne (1842b) and Mitten (1861), but the species is confined to tropical C. and S. America (Gradstein & Costa 2003). It is not known to which taxon the Indian specimens should be assigned. Frullania grandistipula Lindenb. Madras Pen. (no details) [Hattori 1974]. Hattori (1974, 1976) included "Madras Pen." in summary distribution lists for this species. However, source literature for the record has not yet been found, and the record may not have been made within Tamil Nadu. Frullania riparia Hampe ex Lehm. (syn. F. aelotis) confined to Europe eastwards to Iran, and North America, Mexico (Schuster, 1992a). Jungermannia pfleidereri Amakawa & Va Madura, associated with Liochleana subulata, Pfleiderer s.n., det. Stephani, as Solenostoma purpuratum (PC) [Amakawa 1972: 388, as Jungermannia pfleidereri]. Va (1974: 278) commented that J. pfleidereri may belong to J. polyrhizoides Grolle as a modification, but a study of more material is required. The collection is very poor (J. Va, pers. comm., Feb 2010), and perhaps indeterminate. Liochlaena lanceolata Nees (syn. Jungermannia leiantha Grolle) Reported in Chopra 1938: 245, as Aplozia lanceolata. However, J. leiantha is confined to northern temperate regions (e.g. Schuster, 1969; Paton, 1999), and is unconfirmed east of the Ural Mountains (Va & Long 2009). Probably all Indian records refer to L. subulata. Lejeunea serpyllifolia sensu Montagne (1842b) to be clarified: L. serpyllifolia is a synonym of L. patens Lindb., a species confined to Europe, Turkey and the Caucasus (Schuster, 1980; Grolle 1982; Paton, 1999). Leptocolea ocellata sensu Chopra 1938 (Cololejeunea ocellata (Horik.) Benedix) treated here as a mis-identification. Leptolejeunea himalayensis Pand & R.N.Misra this taxon was redetermined as Lejeunea sp. by Awasthi (1986). The recent report from Tamil Nadu (Daniels & Daniel 2003c) to be re-assessed. Phragmicoma filiformis sensu Montagne (1842b) to be clarified: Omphalanthus filiformis (Sw.) Nees (syn. Phragmicoma filiformis (Sw.) Nees) is confined to the Neotropics (Gradstein & Costa 2003). Plagiochila dichotoma sensu Montagne (1842b) to be clarified: P. dichotoma (P.Beauv) Nees & Mont. is apparently confined to the neotropics and Africa (Jones 1962). Plagiochila javanica (Sw.) Nees & Mont. confined to SE Asia (So & Grolle 2000a). Plagiochila levieri Schiffn. synonym of P. propinqua Sande Lac, which ranges from SE Asia to the W. Pacific. Porella pinnata L. confined to N. America and W. Europe (e.g. Schuster 1980; Paton 1999). Radula boryana sensu Montagne (1842b) probably referring to the collection that Castle (1966) identified as R. perrottetii Gottsche, "ex Hb. Montagne". Radula complanata sensu Montagne (1842b) to be clarified: R. complanata is a species of northern temeprate regions. Radula tokiensis Steph. a species of East Asia (China, Japan, Korea); the report in Chopra (1938) is treated as a mis-identification. Riccia warnstorfii Limpr. probably confined to Europe and around the Mediterranean; doubtfully from eastern N. America. Indian reports are considered likely to refer to other species. Scapania glaucescens sensu Montagne (1842b) identity not known; a synonym of Schistochila glaucescens (Hook.) A.Evans, endemic to New Zealand (Schuster & Engel 1985). Solenostoma gracillimum (Sm.) R.M.Schust. (syn. Jungermannia creunlata Sm.) confined to the Holoarctic region, including the Himalayan region (Schuster, 1969; Paton, 1999; Va & Long 2009). Its presence in southern India requires confirmation. Solenostoma purpuratum (Mitt.) Steph. Kodaikanal, Foreau, 1934, 2129, as Aplozia purpurata [Chopra 1938: 245]. To be clarified: neither Amakawa nor Va mention a Tamil Nadu record

of J. purpurata in their revisions of Asian Jungermannia, except as a misidentification (see J. pfleidereri above). The species is otherwise known only from the Himalayan region. Solenostoma sphaerocarpum (Hook.) Steph. Kodaikanal, Foreau, 1934, 2130, as Aplozia sphaerocarpa [Chopra 1938: 245]. To be clarified: not mentioned from South India in Bapna & Kachroo (2000a), or in revisions of Asian Jungermannia by Amakawa or Va. Spruceanthus polymorphus (Sande Lac.) Verd. to be confirmed. Bapna & Kachroo (2000b) cite two localities: Yercaud (Rao & Udar 1957), which is discounted here because of the inadequate descripion and illustration which seem to conform more with S. semirepandus, and Kodaikanal, for which a source reference has not been found.
ANTHOCEROTOPHYTA

Anthoceros macrosporus Steph. the only record of this species is from Borghat, Khandala, Maharashtra (Asthana & Srivastvava (1991). Kachroo et al. 1977 (repeated in Bapna & Kachroo 2000a) give a location as 'Borghat, Kodaikanal', but the latter is treated as a error.
BRYOPHYTA

Atrichum longifolium Cardot & Dixon ex Gangulee S. India [Chopra 1975: 16]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu. Ectropothecium manii Broth. Gangulee (1980: 1990) listed this species from "South India" and his distribution map indicates a locality in the Western Ghats which, however, may be in either Kerala or Tamil Nadu. Entodon beyrichii (Schwgr.) Mll.Hal. Reported from Nilghiri by Montagne (1842: 247), as Isothecium beyrichii Mont. (Neckera beyrichii), but requiring confirmation. Entodon rubicundus (Griff.) A.Jaeger South India [Gangulee 1980: 1783]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu. Leucoloma tenerum Mitt. S. India, Kanara [Chopra 1975: 86]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu, the locality, Kanara, probably referring to a place in Karnataka. Meiothecium jagorii (Mll.Hal.) Broth. South India [Gangulee 1980: 1872]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu. Paraleucobryum albicans (Schwgr.) Loeske Nilgheri [Montagne 1842a: 255]. P. albicans is confined to the neotropics, and the Montagne record must refer to another species. Philonotis dispersa (Cardot & P.de la Varde ) D.G.Griffin & W.R.Buck S. India [Chopra 1975: 248]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu. Pogonatum contortum (Menzies ex Brid.) Lesq. circa Coonoor lectum [Montagne 1842a: 252]. Hyvnen (1989a) considered this species to be confined to both sides of the northern Pacific Ocean. Gangulee does not accept P. contortum from S. India, and the Montagne record must represent another species. Pogonatum inflexum (Lindb.) Sande Lac. reported from S. India (Chopra 1975: 24). Hyvnen (1989) considered the species to be restricted to Japan and surrounding areas of NE Asia, and that many records from mainland Asia are based on misidentifications of either P. neesii (Mll.Hal.) Dozy or P. fuscatum Mitt. Sphagnum ceylanicum Mitt. ex Warnst. S. India [Chopra 1975: 4]. No certain record from Tamil Nadu. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to Mr. B.J. OShea, London and Mr. M.J.
