Abstract
- The article focuses on the Exormotheca ceylonensis Meijer, a threatened liverwort in India. It discusses the rediscovery of the said plant species in Palni Hills, Tamil Nadu. It warns that the occurrence of the species is still confined to small pockets as small populations with a high risk of extinction in the near future because habitat loss is prevailing at a rapid rate in the region. It examines the specimens of the Exormotheca ceylonensis, including the type, sexuality and ecology.
