Abstract
The present paper provides an account of 61 taxa of liverworts and three hornwort species observed during recent survey of Nagaland.Out of these, 46 taxa (44 liverworts, 2 hornworts) are being reported for the first time from Nagaland. Cephaloziella herzogiana (Pandeand Srivastava) Udar and Kumar, and Porella caespitans (Steph.) S. Hatt. var. caespitans are reported as new to North-eastern India. FamilyPlagiochilaceae showed dominance with 14 species, followed by Lejeuneaceae with 9 species. Genus Plagiochila has maximum number(14) of species, followed by Frullania (5). In terms of habitat, corticolous liverworts are dominant as compared to terricolous and saxicolousspecies. In the present study key to all the taxa of Liverworts and Hornworts are also provided here along with habitat and distribution.
