Species endemic to New Caledonia and hitherto only known from one or very few localities were reported from additional localities. Sporophytes of Macromitrium larrainii as well as male plants of Pogonatum neo-caledonicum were found for the first time and are described. Bazzania erosa is excluded from the bryophyte flora of New Caledonia.
