The Flora of Thailand Project has been documenting the diversity of the plants in Thailand except bryophytes due to the previous shortage of expertise on these plants in Thailand. Since 2012, several young Thai bryologists have been actively working together to coordinate the efforts on taxonomic revisions of Thai bryophytes. It is time to publish the Bryophyte Flora of Thailand to make it compatible with the Flora of Thailand Project.
