I need reference book on taxonomy - my local library has nothing!  What
books are used in college bio courses?  The specific problem right now
is to find a liverwort and completely identify it - down to the species
level.  Same thing for a hornwort ...

While I'm at it, is there such a thing as a field guide to liverworts
and hornworts?  The only book we could find with either of these in
it only devotes four pages to both.  A general botany manual would be
ok if it devotes a chapter or so to these plants.
