Synonyme: Amblyodon longisetus (HEDW.) P. BEAUV. Kennzeichen/Artbestimmung: Meesia longiseta ist ein 4–8 (–10) cm hohes, akrokarpes, unverzweigtes Laubmoos von grün-schwärzlicher Färbung. Die Art wächst in lockeren, weichen Rasen (Abb. 2.9). Das Stämmchen ist bis in die Spitze wurzelhaarig und im Moose Querschnitt dreikantig. Die Blättchen sind mehr oder weniger deutlich in 3 oder 6 Rei- hen angeordnet und vom Stämmchen abgespreizt. Die 2–3,5 mm langen, spitzen Blätt- chen laufen deutlich am Stämmchen herab, sind oberwärts gekielt, ganzrandig oder an der Spitze etwas gezähnt. Ihre deutlich entwickelte Rippe endet unterhalb der Blattspitze. Der Blattrand ist flach. Die Laminazellen sind rechteckig bis rhombisch und etwa 14 µm breit. Die rötlichen, gedrehten Seten der synözischen Art können über 10 cm lang wer- den. Die langbirnenförmige, aufrechte Kapsel hat einen deutlichen Hals. Bei der Spo- renreife im Juni und Juli werden die mit 36–44 µm Durchmesser recht großen Sporen frei- gesetzt. Die Chromosomenzahl ist nicht bekannt (FRITSCH 1991). Differenzierende Merkmale zu den ähnlichen Arten Meesia uliginosa und M. hexasticha sind der nicht ein- gerollte Blattrand, die kleineren Sporen und der Rippenquerschnitt mit kleinen, inneren Zellen (zusammengestellt nach CRUM & ANDERSON 1981, FRAHM 1979, LIMPRICHT 1895).

Odlišnost těchto druhů byla hodnocena na základě porovnání variability vybraných morfologických znaků. Jednalo se o délku rostlinky, délku lístku, šířku lístku, poměr délky a šířky lístku, počet párů lístků, počet párů lístků na 1 cm délky rostlinky a velikost buněk. Dále byly studovány ekologické nároky těchto taxonů - substrát, vlhkost a zastínění. Ukázalo se, že pro rozlišení obou druhů je dobré použít délku mechové rostlinky a velikost buněk, dále potom i poměr počtu párů lístků na 1 cm délky rostlinky. -

Rothero A guide to recording mosses and liverworts prepared by members of the British Bryological Society i FOREWORD It is my pleasure as Recording Secretary of the British Bryological Society to commend to you this Handbook, setting out our procedures and recommendations for the future. All the authors of the Handbook are seasoned recorders. The Handbook distils our experience. In 1964, I recorded bryophytes on Harold Whitehouse’s Cambridge excursions. In 2012, I continue to record the bryophytes of Cambridgeshire with great enjoyment. The changes over 47 years are remarkable. Back in the 1960s Plagiochila asplenioides and Rhytidiadelphus triquetrus were common and locally abundant in the boulder-clay woods. Now they are scarce and seen only in small quantity. In those days, pollution-sensitive epiphytes such as Cryphaea heteromalla, Orthotrichum lyellii and O. pulchellum were absent or very rare. Now we see them on most excursions. Sometimes the causes of change are obvious: atmospheric sulfur has decreased dramatically, so the epiphytes have returned. But without good recording both here and in the rest of Europe, we cannot see clearly what is happening or understand Published 2012 by the British Bryological Society its wider significance. Orthotrichum pulchellum, for example, has extended its range www.britishbryologicalsociety.org.uk as well as its frequency. It used to be an ‘Atlantic’ species. Now it is widespread in central Europe. Likewise, Didymodon nicholsonii, long misunderstood on the All rights reserved. -

The Disjunct Bryophyte Element of the Gulf of St. Lawrence Region: Glacial and Postglacial Dispersal and Migrational Histories By @Rene J. Belland B.Sc., M.Sc. A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biology Memorial University of Newfoundland December, 1Q84 St. John's Newfoundland Abstract The Gulf St. Lawrence region has a bryophyte flora of 698 species. Of these 267 (38%) are disjunct to this region from western North America, eastern Asia, or Europe. The Gulf of St. Lawrence and eastern North American distributions of the disjuncts were analysed and their possible migrational and dispersal histories during and after the Last Glaciation (Wisconsin) examined. Based on eastern North American distribution patterns, the disjuncts fell into 22 sub elements supporting five migrational/ dispersal histories or combinations of these : (1) migration from the south, (2) migration from the north, (3) migration from the west, (4) survival in refugia, and (5) introduction by man. The largest groups of disjuncts had eastern North American distributions supporting either survival of bryophytes in Wisconsin ice-free areas of the Gulf of St. Lawrence or postglacial migration to the Gulf from the south. About 26% of the disjuncts have complex histories and their distributions support two histories. These may have migrated to the Gulf from the west and/or north, or from the west and/or survived glaciation in Gulf ice-free areas. -

The Genus Fissidens (Fissidentaceae, Bryophyta) in Hungary
DOI: 10.17110/StudBot.2016.47.1.41 Studia bot. hung. 47(1), pp. 41–139, 2016 THE GENUS FISSIDENS (FISSIDENTACEAE, BRYOPHYTA) IN HUNGARY Peter Erzberger Belziger Str. 37, D–10823 Berlin, Germany; [email protected] Erzberger, P. (2016): Th e genus Fissidens (Fissidentaceae, Bryophyta) in Hungary. – Studia bot. hung. 47(1): 41–139. Abstract: All available specimens of Fissidens collected in Hungary and deposited in BP, and the Hungarian collections of the author (B-Erzberger) were revised, altogether more than 1500 speci- mens. Th ese collections are representative of Hungary, therefore their revision is equivalent to the evaluation of Fissidens in Hungary. As a result of this work, the following sixteen taxa were found to occur in Hungary: F. adianthoides, F. arnoldii, F. bambergeri, F. bryoides, F. crassipes, F. crispus (= F. lim batus), F. curvatus (= F. algarvicus), F. dubius, F. exiguus, F. exilis, F. gracilifolius, F. gymnandrus, F. incurvus, F. pusillus, F. taxifolius, and F. viridulus. F. bambergeri and F. crispus are reported for the fi rst time in Hungary. F. crassipes subsp. warnstorfi i is no longer distinguished from F. crassipes subsp. cras sipes, and F. bryoides var. caespitans (= F. curnovii) is excluded. Th ere are doubts with respect to the taxonomic value of F. bambergeri and F. exiguus, but these seem insuffi cient at present to warrant future neglection of these taxa. All Hungarian species are illustrated and described in detail, with notes on habitat and associated bryophytes; their records are shown in a map, and their red list status is briefl y discussed. In addition, descriptions are also provided for all Fissidens species occurring in the countries surrounding Hungary (but not in Hungary: F. -

Lily Roberta Lewis, PhD University of Connecticut, 2015 Many plants have geographic disjunctions, with one of the more rare, yet extreme being the amphitropical, or bipolar disjunction. Bryophytes (namely mosses and liverworts) exhibit this pattern more frequently relative to other groups of plants and typically at or below the level of species. The processes that have shaped the amphitropical disjunction have been infrequently investigated, with notably a near absence of studies focusing on mosses. This dissertation explores the amphitropical disjunction in the dung moss Tetraplodon, with a special emphasis on the origin of the southernmost South American endemic T. fuegianus. Chapter 1 delimits three major lineages within Tetraplodon with distinct yet overlapping geographic ranges, including an amphitropical lineage containing the southernmost South American endemic T. fuegianus. Based on molecular divergence date estimation and phylogenetic topology, the American amphitropical disjunction is traced to a single direct long-distance dispersal event across the tropics. Chapter 2 provides the first evidence supporting the role of migratory shore birds in dispersing bryophytes, as well as other plant, fungal, and algal diaspores across the tropics. -
Evaluation of Species Richness of Acrocarpous Mosses in Imphal District, Manipur, India

Department of Botany, HNB Garhwal University, Srinagar, Garhwal – 246174, Uttarakhand, India. * Corresponding author. Email: [email protected]; [email protected] (Manuscript received 18 August 2011; accepted 29 November 2011) ABSTRACT: Mosses are remarkably successful colonizer on the variety of habitats. They can survive in extreme environmental conditions where only a few other plants grow. The main attributes of mosses are compact growth form, ability to retain moisture, ectohydric nature, poikilohydry and low growing habit. The occurrence of a particular species may reflect the microclimate of the locality. The present study reveals 75 species of acrocarpous mosses belonging to 23 genera and nine families from Imphal district which is an urban site of tropical climate. The most frequently occurring family is observed to be Pottiaceae with 28 species and 11 genera. The genus Bryum with 13 species is found to have highest number of species followed by Fissidens and Physcomitrium. Splachnobryum sp. and Bryum argenteum are found to be distributed on the nitrophilous substrata. It seems that changing climatic conditions and pollution are restricting the sexual reproduction and subsequently the genetic variability and adaptability in the moss taxa.
