Elements common with tropical America: Kurzia verrucosa, Arachniopsis diacantha, Marsupidium limbatum, Clasmatocolea vermicularis, Radula flaccida, R. stenocalyx, Cololejeunea cardiocarpa, Leucolejeunea unciloba, Symphogyna podophylla, Leptodontium stellatum, Leiomela bartramioides, Leskeodon mniifolium, Hypopterygium viridissimum, Thuidium involvens, Stereophyllum radiculosum, Rhacopilopsis trinitensis. Until on species level are much less common elements with tropical America in East Africa, than in West Africa, there are many genera with American affinity, as Pilotrichella, Odontolejeunea and several genera in Pterobryaceae family. The „American" elements in East Africa are either montane species occurring in the South American Andres, at lower altitude in Tierra del Fuego and South Africa, and again montane in East Africa (as Clasmatocolea vermicularis); or widely distributed tropical elements (as Stereophyllum radiculosum or Rhacopilopsis trinitensis). Subantarclic elements, distributed in temperate S America, Australia and sometimes New Guinea, New Zealand and on the subantarctic isles, finally in South Africa and in the East African mountains (Map. 9.): Bazzania convexa (if identical with B. nitida), В. decrescens, Metzgeria violacea, Dicranoloma billardieri, Rhacocarpus purpurascens, Catagonium nitens. Very disjunct elements: Gymnomitrion laceratum, Adelanthus decipiens, A. lindenbergianus
