(2008). The genus Huperzia (Lycopodiaceae) in the Azores and Madeira. Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society. ISSN 0024-4074. 158:3, p. 522-5330024-4074http://hdl.handle.net/10198/5399The taxonomy and nomenclature of the genus Huperzia Bernh. in the Azores and Madeira have been reviewed. Plants collected in the Azores and Madeira were characterized morphologically. The independence between two endemic species common to Madeira and the Azores Islands – Huperzia suberecta (Lowe) Tardieu and Huperzia dentata (Herter) Holub – is clearly shown. A clear-cut morphological separation between these taxa and Huperzia selago (L.) Bernh. ex Schrank & Mart. of continental Europe is established.engLycopodiaceaeAzoresjournal article10.1111/j.1095-8339.2008.00874.x
