dc.description.abstractThe rare moss Zygodon leptobolax is endemic to Table Mountain, where it is found growing on alien Quercus hosts. The present study aims to investigate this species, place it within a phylogenetic framework and answer the key questions I) what is the current status of Z. leptobolax? 2) what level of genetic diversity exists in the remaining populations? and 3) should these populations be afforded conservation status?en_ZA
