    Chapter BRYOPHYTE RECORDING HANDBOOK C.D. Preston T.H. Blackstock S.D.S. Bosanquet M.F. Godfrey M.O. Hill D.T. Holyoak G.P. Rothero A guide to recording mosses and liverworts prepared by members of the British Bryological Society i FOREWORD It is my pleasure as Recording Secretary of the British Bryological Society to commend to you this Handbook, setting out our procedures and recommendations for the future. All the authors of the Handbook are seasoned recorders. The Handbook distils our experience. In 1964, I recorded bryophytes on Harold Whitehouse’s Cambridge excursions. In 2012, I continue to record the bryophytes of Cambridgeshire with great enjoyment. The changes over 47 years are remarkable. Back in the 1960s Plagiochila asplenioides and Rhytidiadelphus triquetrus were common and locally abundant in the boulder-clay woods. Now they are scarce and seen only in small quantity. In those days, pollution-sensitive epiphytes such as Cryphaea heteromalla, Orthotrichum lyellii and O. pulchellum were absent or very rare. Now we see them on most excursions. Sometimes the causes of change are obvious: atmospheric sulfur has decreased dramatically, so the epiphytes have returned. But without good recording both here and in the rest of Europe, we cannot see clearly what is happening or understand Published 2012 by the British Bryological Society its wider significance. Orthotrichum pulchellum, for example, has extended its range www.britishbryologicalsociety.org.uk as well as its frequency. It used to be an ‘Atlantic’ species. Now it is widespread in central Europe. Likewise, Didymodon nicholsonii, long misunderstood on the All rights reserved.

    ritish Columbia is blessed with biodiversity that is on par with some of the great wilderness areas on the planet, such as the Amazon, the Boreal Rich Wildlife B and the Great Barrier Reef. More than 3,600 species and subspecies call B.C. home. Unfortunately, B.C. has already lost dozens of species to local extinction, and hundreds more risk being eliminated from the province.

This is the first Canadian O F BR I T IS H C O LUM B I A’ S B I OD IV ER SI TY study to report endangerment below the species level. The report concludes that in order to safeguard the province’s unusually abundant biodiversity, the B.C. government must set in place a stronger set of policies to protect species and their habitat, as well as introduce a robust provincial Endangered Species Act. 2211 West 4th Avenue, Suite 219 131 Water Street, Suite 214 Vancouver, BC, Canada V6K 4S2 Vancouver, BC, Canada V6B 4M3 www.davidsuzuki.org www.sierralegal.org A R E P O R T B Y T H E Tel 604.732.4228 Tel 604.685.5618 DAVI D SUZUKI FOUN D ATION Fax 604.732.0752 Fax 604.685.7813 A N D SIERRA LEGA L Printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper, processed chlorine free Design by Arifin Graham, Alaris Design • Cover illustration by Brenda Guild Rich Wildlife Poor Protection THE URGENT NEED FOR STRONG LEGAL PROTECTION OF BRITISH COLUMBIA’S BIODIVERSITY Rich Wildlife, Poor Protection: The urgent need for strong legal protection of British Columbia’s biodiversity Authors: Faisal Moola, Director of Science, David Suzuki Foundation Devon Page, Staff Lawyer, Sierra Legal Michelle Connolly Lindsay Coulter, Conservation Policy Analyst, David Suzuki Foundation © 2007 David Suzuki Foundation ISBN 1-897375-04-2 Canadian Cataloguing in Publication Data for this book is available through the National Library of Canada Acknowledgements: Many people provided valuable assistance in preparing this report.

Joint Nature Conservation Committee, Peterborough. © Joint Nature Conservation Committee 2018 Guidelines for the Selection of Biological SSSIs - Part 2: Chapter 12 Bryophytes (2018 revision, v1.0) Cover note This chapter updates and, along with Chapter 13 Lichens and Chapter 14 Non-lichenised fungi, replaces the previous Non-vascular plants SSSI Selection Guidelines chapter (Nature Conservancy Council 1992). It was prepared by Sam Bosanquet (Natural Resources Wales), Jonathan Cox (Natural England) and David Genney (Scottish Natural Heritage), and provides detailed guidance for use in selecting bryophyte sites throughout Great Britain to recommend for notification as SSSIs. It should be used in conjunction with Part 1 of the SSSI Selection Guidelines, as published in 2013 (Bainbridge et al 2013), which detail the overarching rationale, operational approach and criteria for selection of SSSIs. The main changes from the previous version of the chapter are: • only bryophytes (mosses, liverworts and hornworts) are considered; • assemblage scoring is based on ecologically coherent assemblages; • scores for Nationally Scarce species are constant across Britain; • two Atlantic assemblages have scoring systems that include non-Scarce Hyperoceanic species; • a criterion for selecting the largest population of Red List species in each of England, Scotland and Wales is included; and • discontinuation of the Schedule 8 species selection criterion.

  • The Moss Genus Zygodon (Orthotrichaceae) in Poland – Distribution, Ecological Preferences and Threats
    Cryptogamie, Bryologie, 2017, 38 (3): 231-251 © 2017 Adac. Tous droits réservés The moss genus Zygodon (Orthotrichaceae) in Poland – distribution, ecological preferences and threats Adam STEBEL a*&Jan ŻARNOWIEC b aDepartment of Pharmaceutical Botany, Medical University of Silesia in Katowice, Ostrogórska 30, 41-200 Sosnowiec, Poland bDepartment of Ecology and NatureProtection, University of Bielsko-Biała, Willowa 2, 43-309 Bielsko-Biała, Poland Abstract – The moss genus Zygodon Hook. &Taylor (Orthotrichaceae) is represented by five species in Poland, namely: Z. dentatus (Limpr.) Kartt., Z. gracilis Wilson, Z. rupestris Schimp. ex A.W.H.Walth. &Molendo, Z. stirtonii Schimp. and Z. viridissimus (Dicks.) Brid. Their current distribution in Poland is reviewed and mapped, and lists of their localities are presented. The ecological preferences, altitudinal limits, reproduction and threats for each species are shortly discussed. Akey for determination of these species is given. Bryophyta /Central Europe /moss diversity /epiphytes /phytogeography /protected mosses INTRODUCTION The genus Zygodon Hook. &Taylor includes small to medium-sized acrocarpous mosses forming light to dark green cushions, tufts, or rarely mats on trunks and branches of trees, logs, rarely on base-rich rocks, walls or on concrete. Brotherus (1925) placed in Zygodon 112species, and in the only world monograph Malta (1924, 1926) listed 77 species. Currently,itisbelievedthat the genus encompasses between 50 (Smith, 2004) and about 90-91 species (Crosby et al., 1999; Vitt, 2014). Zygodon is represented in the floras of both hemispheres in warm and temperate climates, but the highest species diversity is in the tropics and subtropics. The real species richness within this genus is most probably lower,because modern taxonomic revisions show,that anumber of species have been described repeatedly under various names.
