A Revision of Schoenobryum (Cryphaeaceae, Bryopsida) in Africa1
Revision of Schoenobryum 147 Tropical Bryology 24: 147-159, 2003 A revision of Schoenobryum (Cryphaeaceae, Bryopsida) in Africa1 Brian J. O’Shea 141 Fawnbrake Avenue, London SE24 0BG, U.K. Abstract. The nine species and two varieties of Schoenobryum reported for Africa were investigated, and no characters were found that uniquely identified any of the taxa to be other than the pantropical Schoenobryum concavifolium. The following nine names become new synonyms of S. concavifolium: Cryphaea madagassa, C. subintegra, Acrocryphaea robusta, A. latifolia, A. subrobusta, A. tisserantii, A. latifolia var. microspora, A. plicatula and A. subintegra var. idanreense; a lectotype is selected for Acrocryphaea latifolia var. microspora P.de la Varde.

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. -
On the Genus Hedwigia (Hedwigiaceae, Bryophyta) in Russia К Систематике Рода Hedwigia (Hedwigiaceae, Bryophyta) В России Elena A
Arctoa (2016) 25: 241–277 doi: 10.15298/arctoa.25.20 ON THE GENUS HEDWIGIA (HEDWIGIACEAE, BRYOPHYTA) IN RUSSIA К СИСТЕМАТИКЕ РОДА HEDWIGIA (HEDWIGIACEAE, BRYOPHYTA) В РОССИИ ELENA A. IGNATOVA1, OXANA I. KUZNETSOVA2, VLADIMIR E. FEDOSOV1 & MICHAEL S. IGNATOV1,2 ЕЛЕНА А. ИГНАТОВА1, ОКСАНА И. КУЗНЕЦОВА2, ВЛАДИМИР Э. ФЕДОСОВ1, МИХАИЛ С. ИГНАТОВ1,2 Abstract An integrative molecular and morphological study of the genus Hedwigia in Russia revealed at least five distinct species in its territory. Hedwigia czernyadjevae sp. nov. appears to have a wide distribution in Transbaikalia, Yakutia and high mountains of the Russian Far East, although it never occurs frequently. Previously its specimens were identified as H. stellata, but straight leaf apices, strongly incrassate and porose laminal cells and hairy calyptrae differentiate H. czernyadjevae from this species, in addition to sequence data, which place the Siberian species closer to American H. detonsa. Hedwigia nemoralis sp. nov. occurs in southern regions of Russia, from the Caucasus to the Russian Far East, with one locality in Central European Russia. It was also revealed from eastern North America. It is characterized by a small plant size, shortly acuminate, secund leaves with short, denticulate hyaline hair points and weakly ciliate perichaetial leaves. Hedwigia mollis sp. nov. has shortly recurved leaf margins, weakly sinuose laminal cells and spores 20–25(–28) m. It was re- vealed in European Russia, from the southern Murmansk Province and Karelia to the Caucasus, and from South Urals and Altai Mts. Hedwigia ciliata is infrequent in Russia, occurring mainly in the North-Western European Russia, with few localities in its central part. -

Houghton, Chairperson Helge M. Gonnermann Christina Neal Thomas Shea John Allen © 2017, Samantha Jo Isgett ii Acknowledgements I probably would not be “standing here today” if my advisor Bruce Houghton had not introduced me to the wonderful world of volcanology. I entered his 300 level volcanology class as a naïve sophomore who had no ambitions of going to graduate school and left knowing that I wanted to be volcanologist and the steps that I needed to take to get there. Bruce has a passion not only for solving the big science question, but also in passing on his knowledge and skill-sets to his students. I cannot thank Bruce enough for seeing in me the potential makings of a scientist and guiding me there. It was, and always will be, a privilege to work with you. I would like to thank my committee — Helge Gonnermann, Thomas Shea, Christina Neal, and John Allen — for pushing me to take every problem and interpretation just a little (or a lot) further. I am especially grateful to Tom and John for stepping in at the last hour. Thank you all for your time and patience. Alain Burgisser, Laurent Arbaret, and Sarah Fagents also brought outside perspectives and skill-sets that were crucial for this project. -

Liverworts, Mosses and Hornworts of Afghanistan - Our Present Knowledge

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. -
THE ANDEAN NORTHWEST T E N a L 243 P Y L E N O L
© Lonely Planet 243 The Andean Northwest In stark contrast with the low, flat, humid northeast, Argentina’s northwest sits lofty, dry and tough beneath the mighty Andes. Nature works its magic here with stone: weird, wonderful and tortured rockscapes are visible throughout, from the imposing formations of the Parque Nacional Talampaya in the far south to the twisted strata of the Quebrada de Cafayate; from the jagged ruggedness of the Valles Calchaquíes to the palette of colors of the Quebrada de Humahuaca. And always to the west is the brooding presence of magnificent peaks. The area has an Andean feel with its traditional handicrafts, Quechua-speaking pockets, coca leaves, llamas, the indigenous heritage of the inhabitants, Inca ruins, and the high, arid puna (Andean highlands) stretching west to Chile and north to Bolivia. The region’s cities were Argentina’s first colonial settlements and have a special appeal. The quiet gentility of Santiago del Estero recalls bygone centuries, Salta’s beauty makes it a favorite stop for travelers, while resolutely urban Tucumán, a sugarcane capital, seems to look firmly to the future. Several popular routes await. From Salta you can take in the cactus sentinels of Parque Nacional Los Cardones on your way to gorgeous Cachi, and then head down through the tradi- tional weaving communities of the Valles Calchaquíes to Cafayate, home of some of Argentina’s best wines. Another route from Salta soars into the mountains to the puna mining settlement of San Antonio de los Cobres, heads north to the spectacular salt plains of the Salinas Grandes, and then down to the visually wondrous and history-filled Quebrada de Humahuaca. -

Hughes B.S. Clemson University Chairperson: Dr. Zack E. Murrell The Southern Appalachian Mountains have been an active region of botanical exploration for over 250 years. The high mountain peaks of western North Carolina, in particular, have attracted interest due to their resemblance of forest communities in NeW England and Canada and to their high species diversity. From the middle of the 19th century, Grandfather Mountain has been a destination for famous botanists conducting research in the region.
