Relationship Between Extant and Fossil Moss Specimens Journ. HallOl'i BOI. Lab. No. 61 : 309- 332 (Dec. 1986) SCIAROMIADELPHUS A. ABR. & 1. ABR. - THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EXTANT AND FOSSIL MOSS SPECIMENS R YSZARD O CHYRA ABSTRACT. Sciaromiadelphus lon!!.ifolius A. Abr. & I. Abr., a fossil moss from the Pliocene deposits from Bashkiria in the Soviet Union, is redescribed and illustrated . It is congeneric with and closely related to the extant Sciaromium barllellii Crum & Steere from Hispaniola, which is also redescribed and ill ustrated. The new genus Sciaromiella Ochyra is proposed and two new combinations, S . longifolia (A. Abr. & I. Abr. ) Ochyra and S. barllellii (Crum & Steere ) Ochyra, are made. Sciaromiadelphus A. Abr. & I. Abr. , a fossil moss genus is congeneric with the extant Sciaromiella , the latter having a priori ty over the former. Sciaromiella is considered to be closely related to Sciaromiopsis Broth., a monotypic genus from China. Sciaromiopsis is redescribed and ill ustra ted. It includes only S. sinellSLI (Broth.) Broth., and S. brevifolia Broth. is synonymous wit h the former species. S. nipponensis Sak. from Japan is di scussed and this species is inseparable from Brachy rhecium populeum (Hedw.) B., S. & G . var. populeum. T he fa milial placement of Sciaromiella and SCiaromiopsis is di scussed and they are placed in the newl y described su bfamily Sciaromiopsoideae Ochyra of the Donrichardsiaceae Ochyra. A key for genera and spec ies of Donrichardsiaceae is gi ven and the geographical affiliation of the Sc iaromiopsoideae is considered. INTRODUCTION Sciaromiade/phus A. Abr. & 1. Abr. is a fossil moss genus that includes only one species, S. longifolius A. Abr. & I. Abr., that have been found in the Pliocene moss assemblage of the K inelian deposits from Bashkiria in the Soviet Union (Abramova & Abramov (967). The moss was recovered from the unsurpassed well-preserved fossil remain s of considerable thickness (Abramov (965). Contrary to most fossilized moss specimens that have hitherto been reported, there is excellent preservation of plants in these Pliocene deposits and the Abramovs were able to examine cellular details of the leaves and to make transverse sections of the stems and leaves as with extant mosses. This resulted in an excellent description of S. /ongifo/ius and therefore an evaluation of its possible affinities with both fossil and extant taxa of mosses was feasible. Abramova and Abramov (1967) included Sciaromiadelphus in the Amblystegi­ aceae. However, they did not discuss the problem of the taxonomic position of this newly described genus and stated only that the general aspect of S. longifolius is compatible to that of some species of Drepanocladus, for in stance D. aduncus var. kneifJi.i or D. jluitans, especia Jl y in habit and leaf shape. On the other hand, the generic name suggests its si milarity and relationship to Sciaromium (Mitt.) Mitt., a genus characterized by having limbate leaves. During the course of my on-going revision of Sciaromium and potentiaJly related I Laboratory ot Bryology, Institute of Botany of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Lubicz 46, PL-31-512 Krak6w, Poland. 310 Journ. Hattori Bot. Lab. No. 61 I 9 8 6 genera with limbate leaves I critically re-examined the holotype of S. longifolius housed in the Komarov Botanical Institute in Leningrad (LE) and compared it to extant genera having limbate leaves, including Sciaromium and Sciaromiopsis Broth., genera that are currently placed in the Amblystegiaceae (Brotherus 1925; Vitt 1984). Special attention was given to Sciaromium bartlettii Crum & Steere, a species described from two collections from Hispaniola (Crum & Steere 1958). It soon became obvious that the fossil , Sciaromiadelphus longifolius, and the extant, Sciaromium bartlettii, shared many critical and taxonomically important characteristics, suggesting close relation­ ships and affinities between these two taxa, and their possible congeneric status. DESCRIPTION OF SCIAROMIADELPHUS LONGlFOLIUS (Fig. 1) Plants rather robust, rigid and wiry in texture. Stems elongate, 5- 8 cm long, si mple or sparsely fastigiately branched, somewhat curved at tips, in transverse section composed of 2- 3 rows of smaller, thick-walled cortical cells surrounding 5- 6 rows of larger, rather firm-walled FIG.

Life and Marine Sciences 37: 1 – 20. https://doi.org/10.25752/arq.23643 Historic urban parks and gardens are increasingly being considered as interesting refuges for a great number of species, including some rare taxa, otherwise almost absent from urban areas, such as many bryophytes and other biota that are not their main focus. After a bibliographic work, the "Reserva Florestal de Recreio do Pinhal da Paz" (RFR-PP), in São Miguel Island (Azores), stood out as one of the least studied areas of the region, without any bryophyte’ references. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the most striking bryophyte species present along the main visitation track of RFR-PP, in order to increase its biodiversity knowledge. Bryophytes growing on rocks, soil or tree bark were collected ad- hoc, in 17 sites, ca. 100 m apart from each other. In total, 43 species were identified: 23 mosses, 19 liverworts, and one hornwort, encompassing five classes, 15 orders and 27 families. Seven species are endemic from Europe and three from Macaronesia. No invasive bryophytes were found in the surveyed area.

It includes 499 species: 141 liverworts, 6 hornworts and 352 mosses (7 strictly endemic to the Canary Islands, 19 endemic to Macaronesia and 6 Ibero-Macaronesian endemics). More than 150 new reports for particular islands and many nomenclatural and taxonomical changes have increased the total number of recorded species in comparison with the formerly published checklists. An analysis of species frequency on the seven islands shows that distribution patterns defined as restricted (presence in 1 or 2 islands) and localised (3, 4 or 5 islands) occur to a similar degree in the Canary Islands (38% and 36%, respectively), while the percentage of species with a general distribution (6 or 7 islands) is slightly lower (27%). Detrended correspondence analysis shows that altitude (in conjunction with heterogeneity and climatic conditions) and island age are the most important factors influencing bryophyte richness in the Canary Islands.

It has a checkered taxonomic history with placements in different genera or, as monospecific genus Andoa, in different families, most frequently in the Hypnaceae. Earlier molecular phylogenetic analyses indicated a close relationship of Andoa with Ctenidium, Hyocomium and Myurium in a clade corresponding to Myuriaceae, which was supported in the present study based on a larger sampling and markers from all three genomes (chloroplast trnL-trnF, nuclear ribosomal ITS and mitochondrial nad5). Haplotype networks of the nad5 and ITS sequences as well as AFLP fingerprinting data revealed the existence of two intraspecific lineages in Andoa berthelotiana, one occurring in Madeira and the Canary Islands and the other in the Azores.
