Abstract
For more than 75 years, the Lord Howe Island moss Spiridens muelleri Hampe has been considered conspecific with Spiridens vieillardii Schimp., originally described from New Caledonia. A comparison of morphological characters not previously considered, along with DNA sequences from three chloroplast loci (trnL–trnF, rps4–trnS, rpl32–trnL) and ITS-2 of nuclear rDNA, supports their recognition as separate species.
