%X The genus Mosla Buch.-Ham. Ex Maxim. Has long been a source of confusion in Taiwan. Three species, Mosla chinensis Maxim., M. dianthera (Buch.-Ham.) Maxim. And M. scabra (Thunb.) Wu & Li are recognized in Taiwan in this paper. Mosla formosana Maxim., which was previously treated as an insufficiently known species, is reduced to synonymy under M. dianthera (Buch.-Ham.) Maxim. SEM micrographs of pollen grains and nutlets, chromosome numbers, distribution maps, a key to species and species descriptions are provided. The ornamentation of the nutlet is a good diagnostic character for recognizing plants at specific rank in this genus.
