The rediscovery of Frullania weberbaueri Steph.: The first record for Chile, its conservation status, and lectotypification

We report the finding of a population of Frullania weberbaueri in Parque Nacional Pan de Azúcar, Antofagasta Province, Chile. This taxon was previously known only from the type specimen collected by August Weberbauer in Lima in 1901. The new gathering is fertile so we describe here its sexuality and...

Descripción
Sumario:We report the finding of a population of Frullania weberbaueri in Parque Nacional Pan de Azúcar, Antofagasta Province, Chile. This taxon was previously known only from the type specimen collected by August Weberbauer in Lima in 1901. The new gathering is fertile so we describe here its sexuality and perianths, together with the oil bodies and the habitat used by the species, and we provide a map of its known distribution. A lectotype for the name is here designated. This is the first record of a liverwort for the deserts of northern Chile, and the southernmost record for Frullania sect. Meteoriopsis.
