In the King George, Elephant, and Nelson Islands, the collections were done in ice-free areas during the austral summers of years 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1994. In Hope Bay, the collections were done in the 2009 summer (February). All collections were deposited in the HCB (Chaves Batista Herbarium). Findings: The King George Area is the most diverse area and the Hope Bay has the lowest diversity stats.

  • Admiralty Bay, King George Island
    Measure 2 (2006) Annex Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Managed Area No.1 ADMIRALTY BAY, KING GEORGE ISLAND Introduction Admiralty Bay is an area of outstanding environmental, historical, scientific, and aesthetic values. It was first visited by sealers and whalers in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and relics from these periods still remain. The area is characterized by magnificent glaciated mountainous landscape, varied geological features, rich sea-bird and mammal breeding grounds, diverse marine ecosystems, and terrestrial plant habitats. Scientific research in Admiralty Bay in post IGY times has been performed in a more permanent way for some three decades now. The studies on penguins have been undertaken continuously in the area for 28 years, and is the longest ever done in Antarctica. Admiralty Bay also has one of the longest historical series of meteorological data collected for the Antarctic Peninsula, one of the areas of the planet most sensitive to climate change. Admiralty Bay has become a site of increasingly diverse human activities, which are continuously growing and becoming more complex. Along the last 30 years, more stations were settled and have grown in area, and visitors increased in numbers per year, from a few hundreds to over 3000. Better planning and co- ordination of existing and future activities will help to avoid or to reduce the risk of mutual interference and minimize environmental impacts, thus providing an effective mechanism for the conservation of the valuable features that characterize the area. Five parties: Poland, Brazil, United States, Peru and Ecuador have active research programmes in the area. Poland and Brazil operate two all-year round stations (Poland: Henryk Arctowski Station at Thomas Point; and Brazil: Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station at Keller Peninsula).

  • An Updated Checklist of the Mosses of Chile
    Mosses of Chile 1 An updated checklist of the mosses of Chile Frank Müller Abstract: The distribution by regions and provinces is provided for each of the 890 moss taxa currently accepted in Chile. All records are supported by literature references, and the number of taxa recorded for each region is given. Synonyms with their owning taxa are intercalated alphabetically in the list. Introduction The last checklist of the mosses of Chile was completed in the end of 1996 and was published in 1998 (He 1998). Since this time a considerable bulk of new data on the mosses of Chile has been published. This provided the stimulus to produce a new checklist. The present study attempts an updated version of the checklist of He (1998) and contains all data available up to the end of November 2009. For a lot of families and genera of the area critical taxonomic revisions were published in the last years. This includes Amblystegiaceae (Hedenäs 2003, Ochyra & Matteri 2001), Bartramia (Fransén 2004), Campylopus (Frahm 2005), Fissidens (Müller & Pursell 2003), Grimmia (Muñoz 1999, Muñoz & Panda 2000), Hypopterygiaceae (Kruijer 2002), Lepyrodon (Allen 1999), Meesiaceae (Matteri & Ochyra 1999), Tortula (Cano & Gallego 2008), and Zygodon (Calabrese 2006). In addition, there is also a remarkable progress in the floristic investigation of Chile (Isla Navarino in province Antártica Chilena: Buck 2002, Goffinet et al. 2006; regions Tarapacá and Antofagasta: Cano 2003; the Los Lagos and Los Ríos regions: Frey & Schaumann 2002, Schaumann 2005, Larrain 2005, 2007, 2007b; Easter Island: Ireland & Bellolio 2002; the Bío-Bío region: Ireland et al. 2007; the Maule Region: Müller & Pereira 2006, Pereira et al.

The archipelago is situated in the South Atlantic, circa 300 miles east of South America and 800 miles north of the Antarctic Peninsula. Climatic conditions and a relative lack of competition from vascular plants contributes to an extensive lower plant flora in the Falkland Islands, with a high diversity of mosses, liverworts and lichens. These non-flowering plants also play an important role in the ecosystem services of the islands, e.g. through soil/peat formation and carbon storage. They also influence water and nutrient cycling by retaining soil moisture and preventing erosion. This project sought to address the ‘critical knowledge gap’ in lower plants and lichens that was identified in The Falkland Islands Biodiversity Strategy 2008 – 2018.

It only had one plant record published so far. We have conducted extensive fieldwork on the site and provide here a comprehensive checklist and a key for the moss species occurring on the island. Despite its small size, theislandcontains about 35% of all theFildes Peninsula moss flora, six new records were found. The pristine state of the island due to its relative isolation, presence of avian nesting sites and a relatively rich moss flora are strong arguments in favor of protection status for the island.

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural (2015) 88:6 DOI 10.1186/s40693-014-0033-z SHORT REPORT Open Access Comparative study of moss diversity in South Shetland Islands and in the Antarctic Peninsula Jair Putzke1,2, Camila G Athanásio2, Margéli Pereira de Albuquerque2, Filipe C Victoria2* and Antonio B Pereira2 Abstract Background: This paper presents a comparative study of moss diversity in three collection sites in the South Shetland Islands (King George, Elephant, and Nelson Islands) and one in the Antarctic Continent (Hope Bay, Antarctic Peninsula). In the King George, Elephant, and Nelson Islands, the collections were done in ice-free areas during the austral summers of years 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1994. In Hope Bay, the collections were done in the 2009 summer (February). All collections were deposited in the HCB (Chaves Batista Herbarium). Findings: The King George Area is the most diverse area and the Hope Bay has the lowest diversity stats. The diversity stats for each region and the similarities between both are presented. Conclusion: This results suggested that harder climatic conditions determine lower diversity for the bryoflora.

En las Islas King George, Elefante y Nelson, se tomaron muestras en las zonas libres de hielo durante los veranos australes de años 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992 y 1994.
