  • 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.

The geographical range of the new species is restricted to the southern-temperate and southern-cool-temperate zones of Tasmania and New Zealand, with maximum occurrence on the South Island of the latter insular country. The species is described and illustrated and its distribution is mapped. The systematic position of B. seppeltii is revealed to be a sister to New Zealand B. allanfifei Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra by molecular evidence based on parsimony analysis of nuclear sequences. In some morphological and anatomical traits, B. seppeltii is similar to southern South American cool-temperate B. heterostichoides (Cardot) Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra but is distinct by its smooth laminal cells, strict hyaline leaf hair points, erect growth form, and very broadly recurved leaf margin in the distal portion.

  • Nomenclatural Entanglements Associated with Racomitrium Chlorocarpum (Grimmiaceae)
    Phytotaxa 188 (3): 153–161 ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2014 Magnolia Press Article ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.188.3.4 Nomenclatural entanglements associated with Racomitrium chlorocarpum (Grim- miaceae) HALINA BEDNAREK-OCHYRA Laboratory of Bryology, Institute of Botany, Polish Academy of Sciences, ul. Lubicz 46, 31-512 Kraków, Poland, e-mail: h.bednarek@ botany.pl Abstract A nomenclatural history of one of the most neglected and misunderstood species Racomitrium chlorocarpum is presented. Valid publication of this species name was incorrectly ascribed to M. Fleischer and R. chlorocarpum of 1904 is merely a younger isonym of R. chlorocarpum Paris of 1897. The species name is lectotypified with a specimen from Tasmania, Aus- tralia, deposited in the Hooker herbarium (BM), and an isolectotype is present in the herbarium of W. Mitten (NY). Racomi- trium chlorocarpum is a typical representative of the genus Bucklandiella, the largest segregate of the broadly interpreted genus Racomitrium and the relevant transfer to this genus is effected as Bucklandiella chlorocarpa, comb. nov. The diagnos- tic characters of the species are briefly summarised. This is a hydrophytic species, endemic to Australasia and is known from SE Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. Key words: Australia, author citation, Bryophyta, Bucklandiella, lectotypification, New Zealand, nomenclature, Tasmania, taxonomy Introduction The genus Racomitrium Bridel (1818[1819]: 78) is well represented in Australasia, both in terms of frequency of species and cover. However, the real number of species in this region is still unknown because the genus has not been carefully and critically revised to provide a sound taxonomic framework for Australasian material.

Brid., Racomitrium lanuginosum (Hedw.) Brid. and Niphotrichum canescens (Hedw.) Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra. All species are briefly described and illustrated and their distribution in Hungary is mapped. A key for determination of genera and species is provided. Some ecological, bryogeographical and conservation questions related to particular species are discussed. The following new statuses and combinations are proposed: Codriophorus P. Beauv. sect.

    ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 1-9, 2019 DOI: 10.2478/cszma-2019-0001 Published: online 1 July 2019, print July 2019 Halina Bednarek-Ochyra and Ryszard Ochyra: A tribute to their contribution to bryology Vít ězslav Plášek It is a great pleasure and honour for me to have the opportunity of editing this unique issue of Acta Musei Silesiae , Scientiae Naturales which contains some 16 bryological contributions dedicated to the well known and respected duo of Polish bryologists, Professors Halina Bednarek-Ochyra (Fig. 1) and Ryszard Ochyra (Fig. 2), on the occasion of their sixtieth and seventieth birthdays, respectively. By their extensive collections and their valuable work on bryophytes from almost all parts of the globe, they have provided a unique addition to the treasury of bryological knowledge. Their expertise and contributions span a wide spectrum of bryological research, including primarily systematics, bryogeography, nomenclature, as well as botanical iconography and documentation, and occasionally, also bryophyte conservation, cytology, ecology and palaeoecology. They are also editors of the valuable series of the Polish, African, Antarctic, Fuegian and Spitsbergen exsiccatae, which have contributed numerous rarities to the world’s herbaria. One cannot fail to acknowledge their exceptionally extensive exploratory and editorial activities as well.

  • Bucklandiella Shevockii (Bryophyta, Grimmiaceae), an Exquisite New Species from Yunnan, China
    Polish Botanical Journal 55(2): 499–506, 2010 BUCKLANDIELLA SHEVOCKII (BRYOPHYTA, GRIMMIACEAE), AN EXQUISITE NEW SPECIES FROM YUNNAN, CHINA HALINA BEDNAREK-OCHYRA & RYSZARD OCHYRA Abstract. Bucklandiella shevockii Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra is described as a new species from fi ve localities in the Gaoli- gong Shan mountains of the Sino-Burmese border region in western Yunnan Province of China. The species is known only in the barren state, with a few perichaetia only, but it exhibits a set of peculiar gametophyte characters, including prominent, pel- lucid, yellow to orange-brownish, lax alar cells forming longly decurrent auricles; a faint, bistratose costa reaching ½−¾ of the leaf length and situated at the bottom of a deep furrow; a distinctly twisted leaf acumen; and a short, hyaline, dentate, fl at and twisted hair-point. These traits make it only distantly related to other congeners and therefore a new subsection, Bucklandiella Roiv. subsect. Shevockiella Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra, is established to accommodate this new species which on account of the shape of the perichaetial leaves is tentatively placed in Bucklandiella Roiv. sect. Subsecunda (Bednarek-Ochyra) Bednarek- Ochyra & Ochyra.

  • Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of the &Ldquo
    Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the “copper moss” Mielichhoferia elongata reveals independent nad7 gene functionality loss Denis V. Goryunov1, Svetlana V. Goryunova2, Oxana I. Kuznetsova3, Maria D. Logacheva1, Irina A. Milyutina1, Alina V. Fedorova1, Michael S. Ignatov3 and Aleksey V. Troitsky1 1 Belozersky Institute of Physico-Chemical Biology, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia 2 Institute of General Genetics Russian Academy of Science, Moscow, Russia 3 Tsitsin Main Botanical Garden Russian Academy of Science, Moscow, Russia ABSTRACT The mitochondrial genome of moss Mielichhoferia elongata has been sequenced and assembled with Spades genome assembler. It consists of 100,342 base pairs and has practically the same gene set and order as in other known bryophyte chondriomes. The genome contains 66 genes including three rRNAs, 24 tRNAs, and 40 conserved mitochondrial proteins genes. Unlike the majority of previously sequenced bryophyte mitogenomes, it lacks the functional nad7 gene. The phylogenetic reconstruction and scrutiny analysis of the primary structure of nad7 gene carried out in this study suggest its independent pseudogenization in different bryophyte lineages. Evaluation of the microsatellite (simple sequence repeat) content of the M. elongata mitochondrial genome indicates that it could be used as a tool in further studies as a phylogenetic marker. The strongly supported phylogenetic tree presented here, derived from 33 protein coding sequences of Submitted 4 September 2017 40 bryophyte species, is consistent with other reconstructions based on a number 19 January 2018 Accepted of different data sets.

  • A CHECKLIST of MONTANA MOSSES (1880–2018) January 3, 2020
    A CHECKLIST OF MONTANA MOSSES (1880–2018) January 3, 2020 Joe C. Elliott Conservation Biology Research, Missoula, Montana Andrea K. Pipp Montana Natural Heritage Program, 1515 E Sixth Ave, Helena, Montana 59601 INTRODUCTION Montana has one of the richest recorded moss floras of the western United States (Eckel et al. 1997), even though large areas of the state remain under surveyed. The Flora of North America (FNA) volumes 27 (2007) and 28 (2014) include 1,402 species found in the continental United States, Canada, Greenland, and St. Pierre and Miquelon, of which 508 species have been recorded in Montana. Including varieties and subspecies, Montana has 522 moss taxa. The rich moss flora is due to the habitat and climatic diversity across the state and a long history of bryological exploration that began in the late 1800s. This checklist is a revision to the second preliminary checklist (Elliott 1993), which listed 408 taxa. The substantial increase in the number of moss taxa since 1993 indicates that, as in much of the western United States, our knowledge of the Montana moss flora continues to expand with increased field and herbarium studies. The discovery of mosses in eastern North America appears to be reaching saturation, but this is not true for western North America, where the accumulation of new species has continued to rise steeply over the last three decades (Carter et al. 2016). Another publication titled the “History, Biogeography, and Species of Montana Mosses (1880-2018)” will be published in Volume 36, Issue 2 of Evansia, a peer-reviewed quarterly of The American Bryological and Lichenological Society (2019).
