The moss flora of Uruguay is very poorly known. Heretofore, it contains 175 species and 6 varieties, distributed in 81 genera. The alphabetical checklist includes accepted taxa with primary references and distributional data for Uruguayan departments. All the data are based on literature records up to January 2002.

Ochyra & Matteri (Bryum montevidense Broth.) is proposed.
