The Bryophytes include mosses, liverworts. Species density of bryophytes on the island is very high in the world and is ascribed to the diversity of vegetation and topography in Taiwan. There are 42 families, 121 genera, about 487 species of liverworts and hornworts recorded from Taiwan. Most of the floristic studies were made by Japanese bryologists. Even since 1960, the Taiwanese bryologists have started to collect and study bryophytes. Several monographs on liverworts and mosses have been published, but no any complete liverworts and hornworts flora of Taiwan till now. Completing the bryoflora of Taiwan in the immediate future is one of the important works to realize the biodiversity of Taiwan.
