Taeniophyllum Blume

There are two species in this genus including one endemic species. Observations were made only on T. alwisii (VU) from Arankele forest monastery in the intermediate zone ( MOE, 2012). Early records show the distribution of the species in sub-montane and montane zones ( Jayaweera, 1981; Fernando & Ormerod, 2008). Therefore the present observation will be a new site record for this species.
