A Moss Flora of Central America, Part 3

该项目的重点是制作《中美洲苔藓植物区系》，其中将包括整个中美洲地区19科、70属和210种的分类和修订处理。印刷版和电子版将以西班牙文和英文出版，并可在线获得，附有高分辨率的线条插图。中美洲的苔藓植物区系将涉及对过去25年来积累的大量未命名的植物群进行命名。这些标本中的重复材料将被送回原产国，作为主要的参考资料，这将大大提高拉丁美洲苔藓学家为其标本和标本命名的能力。在修订的背景下对中美洲苔藓的命名将使这些苔藓有意义地纳入其他跨学科研究，尤其是生态学研究。

This project is focused on the production of the Moss Flora of Central America, which will comprise taxonomic and revisionary treatments of 19 families, 70 genera, and 210 species native to the entire Central American region. Publication in hardcopy and electronic versions will be in Spanish and English, and available on-line, with high-resolution line illustrations. The moss flora of Central America will involve then aming of large numbers of unnamed collections that have accumulated over the last twenty-five years. Duplicate material from these collections will be treturned to their country of origin where as a primary reference collection it will greatly enhance the ability of Latin American bryologists to name their specimens and collections. The naming of Central American mosses in a revisionary context will allow msses to be meaningfully incorporated into other interdisciplinary studies, most notably ecological studies.
