Abstract
Some taxonomic and nomenclatural problems withinLycopodiales are discussed. InHyperzia Bernh. three subgenera have been distinguished, one of them described as a new one. With regard to a separate position ofLycopodium sect.Magellanica B. Øllgaard, a new genusAustrolycopodium Holub was proposed, comprising eight species mostly from the Southern Hemisphere. An analysis of the validity of the generic nameDiphasium C. Presl 1845 was carried out with an affirmative result. Six names for infrageneric taxa ofHuperzia and 44 new combinations for species have been proposed; in addition to those ofAustrolycopodium (8) they refer mainly toHuperzia (22) andPalhinhaea (9).
