Abstract

This study confirms the occurrence of Pabstiella determannii in the Brazilian Amazon since it was recently collected in the state of Roraima, Northern Brazil. After an accurate comparison of protologues and type specimens, we also propose here a new synonym under Platystele stenostachya. Identification keys for the species from the Brazilian Amazon belonging to the two genera are provided.
