Cinclidium alaskanum sp. nov. (Mniaceae), a new moss from the North Slope of Alaska
The taxonomy of Cinclidium, with only four species recognized, has been remarkably stable compared to most other genera in the Mniaceae. Two bisexual diploids (C. stygium and C. subrotundum) with n = 14 and two unisexual haploids (C. arcticum and C. latifolium) with n = 7 have been accepted since 18...
