An extensive field investigation conducted in some pockets of the Western Himalaya (India) revealed the presence of two moss taxa, namely Trachypodopsis formosana Nog. (Meteoriaceae) and Bucklandiella nitidula (Cardot) Bedn. -Ochyra & Ochyra (Grimmiaceae), as new record for India. A comprehensive taxonomic key encompassing all known species within India for both taxa, along with an account of their distinctive morphological attributes are provided. The present study resulted into the extension of the known range of distribution of these two taxonomically significant moss species beyond China for former species while beyond China and Japan for latter.
