Abstract

Erpodium cubense, previously known only from Cuba, was found in the Dominican Republic as misidentified collections of E. domingense. Fissidens cryptoneuron, previously known from tropical Africa and eastern Brazil, is reported from Bolivia. The actual or real range of a species depends upon a number of physical and biological factors. The perceived range of a species approximates the actual range; its propinquity to the actual range is dependent on correct specimen identification and scope of collecting activity.
