New records of three moss species ( Ptychostomum pseudotriquetrum, Schistidium antarctici , and Coscinodon lawianus ) from the southern Prince Charles Mountains, Mac.Robertson Land, Antarctica
ABSTRACT We have used a combination of traditional morphological examination and molecular DNA analysis to characterise 16 moss specimens collected from the Mawson Escarpment and Clemence Massif, exposures of bedrock and glacial debris in the southern Prince Charles Mountains of East Antarctica.
