Abstract
The moss genus Codriophorus P. Beauv., established by Palisot de Beauvois i n 1822, consisted of two species, namely C. acicularis (Hedw.) P. Beauv. an d C. pulvinatus (Hedw.) P. Beauv., neither of which were designated as the type. The nomenclatural history of this generic name is briefly outlined an d C. acicularis (Hedw.) P. Beauv, is here chosen as its lectotype. Accordin gly Codriophorus must be considered synonymous with Racomitrium Brid. and s pecifically with Racomitrium sect. Stenotrichum (Chevall.) Bednarek-Ochyra and subsect. Papillosa (Kindb.) Bednarek-Ochyra. Codonophorus P. Beauv, ex Desv, of 1824 is an orthographic variant of Codriophorus. (C) 2001 Adac / E ditions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
