The species diversity of mosses along the trekking trail to Langbian summit (= Núi Bà), in Bidoup-Núi Bà National Park, Central Highlands of Vietnam was surveyed. Two field trips were carried out in February and May 2015. Ninety-four species of mosses, which belong in 61 genera and 30 families have been identified. Among these, 26 species are new records for Lâm Đồng province, and an additional 16 and 10 species are new records for Vietnam and Indochina respectively. The moss family with the highest number of species is Meteoriaceae (14% of total). There is a significant difference in species composition of mosses between the recent study and studies in the 1950s and1960s.
