Introduction

Botanist from Real Jardín Botánico of Madrid, San Pablo-CEU University of Madrid and University of Murcia carried out an expedition to Central and South Peru in March and April of 2005. The briological team was composed by María J. Cano and Juan Guerra (University of Murcia), and it was funded by Spanish Ministry of Education and Science thought to the project “Taxonomic revision of the genus Hennediella, Syntrichia and Tortula (Pottiaceae, Bryophyta) in South America” (CGL2004-00788). This exploration was also carried out thanks to the cooperation of Asunción Cano of University San Marcos of Lima (Lima, Peru). About 600 specimens of bryophytes were collected, keeping primarily at MUB with duplicates at USM, and MO.

Introduction

A briological team composed by María J. Cano, and Juan A. Jiménez from University of Murcia (Spain) carried out an expedition to Northern Peru (Cajamarca, Lambayeque, Piura, Trujillo) in June of 2009. This trip was funded by Spanish Ministry of Education and Science through the project “Study of the tribes Barbuleae and Bryoerythrophylleae (Pottiaceae, Bryophyta) in South America” (CGL2007-60692). This exploration was carried out thanks to the cooperation of Asunción Cano of University San Marcos of Lima (USM). We wish to acknowledge the assistance of Segundo Leiva and Mario Zapata (Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego). About 550 specimens of bryophytes were collected, keeping at MUB with duplicates at USM.

Introduction

A briological team composed by María J. Cano, Juan A. Jiménez and Marta Alonso from University of Murcia (Spain) carried out an expedition to Central Peru (Ancash, Pasco, Huánuco, and Lima) in May-June of 2013. This trip was funded by Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation through the project “Studies in the family Pottiaceae in South America. Phase III” (CGL2010-15959). This exploration was carried out thanks to the cooperation of Asunción Cano of University San Marcos of Lima (USM). We wish to acknowledge the assistance of J. Molina. About 800 specimens of bryophytes were collected, keeping at MUB and USM.
