Grimmia (Grimmiaceae, Bryophyta) in southern Mexico (Oaxaca and Chiapas)

Background and Aims: The taxonomy and distribution of Grimmia are well known because of recent reviews in global, continental, and regional studies. However, collections from some areas like southern Mexico are scarce. This study updates the distribution of Grimmia in southern Mexico and attempts to...

description Background and Aims: The taxonomy and distribution of Grimmia are well known because of recent reviews in global, continental, and regional studies. However, collections from some areas like southern Mexico are scarce. This study updates the distribution of Grimmia in southern Mexico and attempts to revise the hypothesis of its geographical distribution.Methods: Field work in Oaxaca and Chiapas complemented records in a Neotropical database of Grimmia. Collections from these states partly validated models of potential distribution for several species prepared in a previous study.Key results: There are three species of Grimmia in southern Mexico: G. longirostris, G. pilifera, and G. trichophylla. The last species is the only record for Chiapas where it is associated with other temperate and subtropical mosses.Conclusions: Its known range in Mexico, as supported by the study of more than 900 specimens from this country, suggests that Grimmia arrived from North America, not from a southern origin because key species have not been found in Oaxaca and Chiapas.

Antecedentes y Objetivos: Revisiones taxonómicas a nivel mundial, continental y regional han permitido un buen conocimiento de la taxonomía y distribución geográfica de Grimmia. Sin embargo, las colecciones para ciertas áreas como el sur de México son escasas. Este estudio actualiza la distribución del género en el sur de México e intenta revisar la hipótesis de su origen geográfico.Métodos: Trabajos de campo en Oaxaca y Chiapas complementan los registros de una base de datos neotropicales para Grimmia. Las colecciones de estos estados validan parcialmente los modelos de distribución potencial preparados en un estudio previo.Resultados clave: Se encontraron tres especies de Grimmia en el sur de México: G. longirostris, G. pilifera y G. trichophylla. Esta última es la única especie registrada para Chiapas en donde se asocia con otros musgos templados y subtropicales.Conclusiones: Su área de distribución conocida en México, apoyada por la revisión de más de 900 ejemplares, sugiere que Grimmia llegó de Norteamérica y no de localidades del sur porque otras especies importantes no se han encontrado en Oaxaca y Chiapas.
