摘要

The paper highlights an important collection of Chinese mosses collected in Shaanxi (northwest China) by the missionary Father Giuseppe Giraldi and sent by him to the Florentine botanist Antonio Biondi, on several occasions from 1894 to 1899. This material was later given for study to the botanist Carl Müller in Berlin and later to Victor F. Brotherus, an eminent Finnish bryologist, and finally to Levier himself in Florence. In all, the number of new species of Chinese mosses, mostly described by Müller, amounted to around 260, to which were added a few more described by Brotherus and, in recent times, by contemporary bryologists. The enclosed list contains 289 names of mosses from Shaanxi. Over time, some of these names have been the subject of study by bryologists from Europe and beyond, and consequently 90 of these have already been typified (88 lectotypes, 1 holotype, 1 neotype); of the remaining names, 146 have been lectotypified here, while the remainder are either nomina nuda or are undergoing lectotypifcation by contemporary scholars.
