An Addition to the Moss Flora
ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 63: 111-122, 2014 DOI: 10.2478/cszma-2014-0012 Bryjarka hill in Szczawnica (Beskid Sądecki Mts, Western Carpathians, Poland) - a natural and cultural focus Grzegorz Vončina, Maciej Wawrzczak, Laura Betleja, Joanna Kozik, Robert Kościelniak, Piotr Chachuła Bryjarka hill in Szczawnica (Beskid Sądecki Mts, Western Carpathians, Poland) - a natural and cultural focus. – Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 63: 111-122, 2014. Abstract: The aim of this article is to present the history and the current state of Bryjarka hill, situated in Szczawnica (the Beskid Sądecki range in southern Poland) in relation to its environmental and cultural values. Another aim of this article is to show that Bryjarka hill plays an important role in the biological, geological and cultural aspects of the region. It represents cultural significance where the traces of human activities date back to medieval times. Key words: nature values, cultural values, andesite, lichens, fungi, mosses, plants, succession, nature protection Introduction Bryjarka is a hill in Szczawnica, in the south-western part of the Beskid Sądecki Mts. (Fig. 1). It is known for its picturesque view and an iron cross placed there at the beginning of 20th century on the top of the hill (Węglarz 2011; Chrzanowska & Chrzanowski 2013). Residents, tourists and spa guests can take a 30-40 minutes walk from Dietl square up to the top of the hill following the yellow trail. In addition to sacred and tourism values of it, there are some very interesting places in respect of nature conservation (thermophilous and rare species of plants) and cultural values (andesite quarry). -
The Lichen Genus Physcia (Schreb.) Michx (Physciaceae: Ascomycota) in New Zealand
Tuhinga 16: 59–91 Copyright © Te Papa Museum of New Zealand (2005) The lichen genus Physcia (Schreb.) Michx (Physciaceae: Ascomycota) in New Zealand D. J. Galloway1 and R. Moberg 2 1 Landcare Research, New Zealand Ltd, Private Bag 1930, Dunedin, New Zealand ([email protected]) 2 Botany Section (Fytoteket), Museum of Evolution, Evolutionary Biology Centre, Uppsala University, Norbyvägen 16, SE-752 36 Uppsala, Sweden ABSTRACT: Fourteen species of the lichen genus Physcia (Schreb.) Michx are recognised in the New Zealand mycobiota, viz: P. adscendens, P. albata, P. atrostriata, P. caesia, P. crispa, P. dubia, P. erumpens, P. integrata, P. jackii, P. nubila, P. poncinsii, P. tribacia, P. trib- acoides, and P. undulata. Descriptions of each taxon are given, together with a key and details of biogeography, chemistry, distribution, and ecology. Physcia tenuisecta Zahlbr., is synonymised with Hyperphyscia adglutinata, and Physcia stellaris auct. is deleted from the New Zealand mycobiota. Physcia atrostriata, P. dubia, P. integrata, and P. nubila are recorded from New Zealand for the first time. A list of excluded taxa is appended. KEYWORDS: lichens, New Zealand lichens, Physcia, atmospheric pollution, biogeography. Introduction genera with c. 860 species presently known (Kirk et al. 2001), and was recently emended to include taxa having: Species of Physcia (Schreb.) Michx, are foliose, lobate, Lecanora-type asci; a hyaline hypothecium; and ascospores loosely to closely appressed lichens, with a whitish, pale with distinct wall thickenings or of Rinodella-type (Helms greenish, green-grey to dark-grey upper surface (not dark- et al. 2003). Physcia is a widespread, cosmopolitan genus ening, or colour only little changed, when moistened). -

Saxicolous Bryophytes of an Ordovician Dolomite Escarpment in Interlake Manitoba, with New Species Records for the Province
Saxicolous Bryophytes of an Ordovician Dolomite Escarpment in Interlake Manitoba, with New Species Records for the Province RICHARD T. C ANERS 442 Earth Sciences Building, Department of Renewable Resources, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2E3 Canada; email: [email protected] Caners, Richard T. 2011. Saxicolous bryophytes of an Ordovician dolomite escarpment in Interlake Manitoba, with new species records for the province. Canadian Field-Naturalist 125(4): 327-337. An assessment of bryophyte species growing on an Ordovician dolomite escarpment in the Interlake region of Manitoba known as Marble Ridge revealed a diverse flora composed mostly of circumboreal floristic elements. Two liverwort families (including three species) and four moss species are reported for Manitoba for the first time: the liverworts Athalamia hyalina (Sommert.) Hatt. (Cleveaceae), Mannia fragrans (Balbis) Frye et Clark (Aytoniaceae), and Mannia sibirica (K. Müll.) Frye et Clark (Aytoniaceae) and the mosses Brachythecium collinum (Schleich. ex C. Müll.) Schimp. in B.S.G., Grimmia teretinervis Limpr., Schistidium frigidum H. H. Blom, and Seligeria donniana (Sm.) C. Müll. An annotated summary of these and other bryophyte species documented at the site is provided. The diversity of encountered bryophytes can mostly be attributed to the moist and shaded microclimatic conditions on the escarpment and the large number of microhabitats the escarpment supports. This study represents one of few accounts of bryophytes in the region and highlights the importance of this particular geologic formation in supporting a number of species that are expected to be regionally uncommon. Key Words: Athalamia hyalina , Brachythecium collinum , bryophyte, circumboreal, floristic affinity, Grimmia teretinervis , Interlake, life form, liverwort, Manitoba, Mannia fragrans , Mannia sibirica , Marble Ridge, moss, phytogeography, Schistidium frigidum , Seligeria donniana. -

Liverworts, Mosses and Hornworts of Afghanistan - Our Present Knowledge
ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 11-24, 2019 DOI: 10.2478/cszma-2019-0002 Published: online 1 July 2019, print July 2019 Liverworts, mosses and hornworts of Afghanistan - our present knowledge Harald Kürschner & Wolfgang Frey Liverworts, mosses and hornworts of Afghanistan ‒ our present knowledge. – Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 11-24, 2019. Abstract: A new bryophyte checklist for Afghanistan is presented, including all published records since the beginning of collection activities in 1839 ‒1840 by W. Griffith till present. Considering several unidentified collections in various herbaria, 23 new records for Afghanistan together with the collection data can be added to the flora. Beside a new genus, Asterella , the new records include Amblystegium serpens var. serpens, Brachythecium erythrorrhizon, Bryum dichotomum, B. elwendicum, B. pallens, B. weigelii, Dichodontium palustre, Didymodon luridus, D. tectorum, Distichium inclinatum, Entosthodon muhlenbergii, Hygroamblystegium fluviatile subsp. fluviatile, Oncophorus virens, Orthotrichum rupestre var. sturmii, Pogonatum urnigerum, Pseudocrossidium revolutum, Pterygoneurum ovatum, Schistidium rivulare, Syntrichia handelii, Tortella inflexa, T. tortuosa, and Tortula muralis subsp. obtusifolia . Therewith the number of species increase to 24 liverworts, 246 mosses and one hornwort. In addition, a historical overview of the country's exploration and a full biogeography of Afghan bryophytes is given. Key words: Bryophytes, checklist, flora, phytodiversity. Introduction Recording, documentation, identification and classification of organisms is a primary tool and essential step in plant sciences and ecology to obtain detailed knowledge on the flora of a country. In many countries, such as Afghanistan, however, our knowledge on plant diversity, function, interactions of species and number of species in ecosystems is very limited and far from being complete. -

A note on Pottia intermedia (Turner) Fürnr. (Pottiaceae, Bryop- sida) with special reference to its phylogeny and new localities in SW Japan. Hikobia 16: 67–78. Eight new localities of Pottia intermedia (Turner) Fürnr. are recorded from Honshu and Shikoku (Hiroshima, Kagawa and Ehime Prefs.), SW Japan. Although it is widely distributed in the world, this species is a rare moss in Japan and is previously known from Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu for Japan. Japanese populations of P. intermedia grow on soil in open sites, especially in citrus orchards. Analytical illustrations with SEM images of peristome, spores and leaf papillae and a discussion on the phyloge- netic position of this species are provided based on the materials collected.
