Abstract
Thirty-five species of the liverwort genus Bazzania are recognised from Australia, including eleven endemics. The greatest diversity is in the Australian Wet Tropics bioregion in northern Queensland, where 28 species are known to exist. Keys to northern and southern Australian species are provided, and each species is described and illustrated. Bazzania uncigera (Reinw., Blume & Nees) Trevis. is newly reported for Australia.
