MOSS GEOGRAPHY AND FLORISTICS IN CALIFORNIA by James R. Shevock .......................................................................................... 12 Be amazed at the great diversity of mosses in California, the habitats in which they grow, and moss geography, along with a history of moss collecting in California, as you read this article written by one of California’s premier moss authorities. Then consider the fact that mosses new to California, including new species, are continually being discovered. THE ROLE OF THE AMATEUR IN BRYOLOGY: TALES OF AN AMATEUR BRYOLOGIST by Kenneth Kellman .................................. 21 Experience this journey of a commercial air conditioning mechanic with a fledgling interest 19 in mosses, to an amateur bryologist who is authoring a “Catalog of the Mosses of Santa Cruz County”! Ken Kellman shares his joy of learning more about mosses, along with tools, resources, and encouragement for others who may wish to travel this same road. MOSSES IN THE DESERT? by Lloyd R. Stark .......................................... 26 Most of us think of mosses as being only abundant in wet habitats, festooning trees, or carpeting rocks and logs. In this article the author transforms these stereotypical images by writing of the many mosses of California deserts and where one finds them, along with many fascinating reproductive strategies employed by mosses surviving in such extreme habitats. THE BIOLOGY OF BRYOPHYTES, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO WATER by Brent D. Mishler ............................... 34 Brent Mishler discusses the evolutionary history of bryophytes, and the physiological aspects of these plants that define where and how they live, with particular emphasis on mosses and water.

Four species are added to the flora: Orthomnion javense (M.Fleisch.) T.J.Kop., Philonotis asperifolia Mitt., P. laii T.J.Kop., P. speciosa (Griff.) Mitt. syn. nov. (based on P. mercieri Paris & Broth.), and Plagiomnium wui (T.J.Kop.) Y.J.Yi & S.He. Eight species are excluded from the flora. Two taxa are considered doubtful. The flora now includes one species of Fleischerobryum, eight species of Philonotis, one species of Mnium Hedw. (doubtful), three species of Orthomnion Wills. and five species of Plagiomnium (one doubtful). The 15 species are divided into phytogeographical elements. Eight belong to the Southeast Asiatic temperate to meridional element, and seven to the Southeast Asiatic meridional to subtropical element.

  • Floristic Study of Bryophytes in a Subtropical Forest of Nabeup-Ri at Aewol Gotjawal, Jejudo Island

A total of 63 taxa belonging to Bryophyta (22 families 37 genera 44 species), Marchantiophyta (7 families 11 genera 18 species), and Antho- cerotophyta (1 family 1 genus 1 species) were determined, and the liverwort index was 30.2%. The predominant life form was the mat form. The rates of bryophytes dominating in mesic to hygric sites were higher than the bryophytes mainly observed in xeric habitats. These values indicate that such forests are widespread in this study area. Moreover, the rock was the substrate type, which plays a major role in providing micro-habitats for bryophytes. We suggest that more detailed studies of the bryophyte flora should be conducted on a regional scale to provide basic data for selecting indicator species of Gotjawal and evergreen broad-leaved forests on Jejudo Island. Keywords: bryophyte, Aewol Gotjawal, liverwort index, life-form Jejudo Island was formed by volcanic activities and has geological, ecological, and cultural aspects (Jeong et al., 2013; unique topological and geological features.

The incomplete preservation and lack of key characters that could define the position of an ancient moss in modern classification remain the problem. Carboniferous records are still impossible to refer to any of the modern moss taxa. Numerous Permian protosphagnalean mosses possess traits that are absent in any extant group and they are therefore treated here as an extinct lineage, whose descendants, if any remain, cannot be recognized among contemporary taxa. Non-protosphagnalean Permian mosses were also fairly diverse, representing morphotypes comparable with Dicranidae and acrocarpous Bryidae, although unequivocal representatives of these subclasses are known only since Cretaceous and Jurassic. Even though Sphagnales is one of two oldest lineages separated from the main trunk of moss phylogenetic tree, it appears in fossil state regularly only since Late Cretaceous, ca.

  • SPECIES FACT SHEET Ryszard's Racomitrium Moss
    SPECIES FACT SHEET Common Name: Ryszard's racomitrium moss Scientific Name: Codriophorus ryszardii Recent synonyms: Racomitrium ryszardii. All reports of Racomitrium aquaticum (= Codriophorus aquaticus) from North America refer to Codriophorus ryszardii. Division: Bryophyta Class: Bryopsida Order: Grimmiales Family: Grimmiaceae Taxonomic Note: All North American records for Codriophorus aquaticus (= Racomitrium aquaticum) have been renamed Codriophorus ryszardii (= Racomitrium ryszardii), and C. aquaticum has been restricted to the Old World (Benarek-Ochyra 2000; Ochyra and Benarek-Ochyra 2004a). Nomenclature used in this species fact sheet follows the conspectus for the Racomitroideae proposed for use in the Bryophyte Flora of North America (Ochyra and Benarek-Ochyra 2004b). Technical Description: Plants trailing or to erect, 1-10 cm long, branched irregularly. Leaves green, yellow-green to blackish below, linear-lanceolate, straight or curved at shoot tips, imbricate when dry, 2- 4 mm long, 0.4-1 mm wide, tapered to a rounded, roughened tip; margins entire, recurved, lacking row of large thin-walled cells at base; costa forming prominent keel at back of leaf, extending nearly to leaf tip and never forming an awn; leaf cells multipapillose, the cell walls sinuose-wavy. Setae 4-8 mm long, twisted clockwise when dry. Capsules 2-3 mm long, cylindrical. Peristome teeth 0.6-0.8 mm long. Distinctive characters: (1) Leaf cells multipapillose, (2) leaves imbricate, strongly keeled and consistently awnless, (3) leaves bright green to yellow-green, (4) peristome 1 mm long, (5) moist shaded rock substrate. Similar species: Codriophorus varius (= Racomitrium varium) is very similar, but (1) usually at least some of its leaves have distinct awns, (2) its peristome teeth are an astonishing 1-1.7 mm long, forming a tepee-shaped cone that is frequently broken, and (3) its habitat on rocks, logs and soil is usually drier than that of C.

  • Monoicous Species Pairs in the Mniaceae (Bryophyta); Morphology, Sexual Condition and Distiribution
    ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci.

Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 67-81, 2019. Abstract: Some early observations seemed to show that, in the Mniaceae, the doubling of the chromo- some set affects a change from dioicous to monoicous condition, larger size of the gametophyte including larger leaf cell size, and to a wider range of the monoicous counterpart. The Mniaceae taxa are divided into four groups based on their sexual condition and morphology. 1. Dioicous – monoicous counterparts which can be distinguished by morphological characters, 2. Dioicous – monoicous taxa which have no morphological, deviating characters, 3. Monoicous species mostly with diploid chromosome number for which no dioicous counterpart is known, and 4. The taxa in Mniaceae with only dioicous plants. Most of the monoicous species of the Mniaceae have wide ranges, but a few of them are endemics in geographically isolated areas. The dioicous species have either a wide holarctic range or a limited range in the forested areas of temperate and meridional North America, Europe and SE Asia, or in subtropical Asia. Some of the monoicous species are evidently autodiploids and a few of them are allopolyploids from cross-sections of two species. Quite recently, several new possible dioicous – monoicous relationships have been discovered.
