Undiscovered Biodiversity of the European Moss Flora: <i>Neodicranella hamulosa</i> (Aongstroemiaceae), a New Genus and Species from SW Portugal

A new genus is described to accommodate <i>Neodicranella hamulosa</i>, a novel species resolved in the family Aongstroemiaceae, from the Monchiquense district in SW Portugal. Characterized by its small size, erect spreading to subsecund non-sheathing leaves, plane bistratose leaf margins...
