          Abstract

          A relative of the African species described by Brotherus as Bryum perspinidens , has been discovered in Guyana with erect capsules and a short inner peristome. The Guyana material is recognized as a new species, and both species are placed in the genus Brachymenium . The characteristics that distinquish the genus are discussed with reference to the Guyana specimens of Brachymenium speciosum .
