Monoclea forsteri is one of the two species in the thallose liverwort family Monocleaceae. It is dioicous with the capsule dehiscing with a single longitudinal slit.[1] Endemic and widely distributed throughout New Zealand, it is also the country's largest thalloid liverwort.[2][1][3][4] Hooker described the species in 1820.[5][3] The holotype is in the British Museum.[6]
