Liverworts of Mount Desert Island


Below is a working list of Mount Desert Island's liverworts that grow without cultivation. This list and nomenclature is based on a very old (1924) article in Rhodora, the journal of the New England Botanical Club. Therefore, there is likely much updating of the taxonomy necessary.
