ABSTRACT Cheilolejeunea mariana (Gottsche) B. Thiers & Gradst. is excluded from China. Taxilejeunea crassiretis Herzog, which was known only from the type locality (Yunnan, China), is proposed as a synonym of Lejeunea flava (Sw.) Nees. Cololejeunea rotundilobula (P. C. Wu & P. J. Lin) Piippo is newly reported for Taiwan. Cololejeunea indosinica Tixier, C. mackeeana Tixier, and Lopholejeunea sikkimensis Steph. are new to China. The former two were found in Hainan and Taiwan respectively, the latter in Yunnan. Illustrations of C. mariana, L. flava, and Lopholojeunea javanica (Nees) Schiffn. are provided. A lectotype for Physocolea crenulata Herzog was designated.
