3. Hypnum afroacuminulatum Müll. Hal., Bot. Jahr. Syst. 5: 88. 1884. — Taxithelium afroacuminulatum (Mu?ll. Hal.) Paris, Index Bryol. 1260. 1898.

Protologue: [Dier auf der Expedition S.M.S. Gazelle von Naumann] Mungo.

Label: Mungo. Gazelle Expedition. Naumann, 1874. n. sp. (isotypes: BM!, E!, FH!, LE!). [= Taxithelium planum Mitt. ( Câmara 2011) ]. Comments : Mungo is located in nowadays Cameroon. Even lacking collecting number, all other label data and protologue data match; also the year of collection,1874, precedes the publication year (1884), a worth noting information. TROPICOS cited the year of publication as 1883 but the correct one is 1884. The label annotation “ n.sp.” indicates that the author consider it as a new species .
