The MADBRYO project is an international, collaborative effort to enhance our knowledge of Malagasy bryophytes. MADBRYO is linked to the related BRYOTAN project.
Since the beginning of the eighteenth century, botanists have collected mosses, liverworts, and hornworts in Madagascar. However, many of these collections still remain in need of curation and/or study by taxonomic experts. Several botanists, supported by their institutions, have decided to combine their efforts in an open project with the aim to curate collections, review taxonomy, explore new areas for bryophytes, and investigate further scientific questions concerning the Malagasy bryoflora.
