Cololejeunea raduliloba Steph., is collected from Gibbon Wildlife Sanctuary in Jorhat (Assam). In India, this species is little known and authentically reported only from Western Ghats and Sri Lanka biodiversity hotspot. In the Assam region, its presence was earlier doubted; hence present report confirms its occurrence in the region.
