Bryophytes in Maranhão/Brazil: A New Area, a New Species List

Abstract: Bryophytes were collected from a Cerrado fragment, located in the mu nicipality of Caxias, Maranhão/Brazil. In the study area, 175 bryophytes were distributed in 12 families (10 mosses and two liverworts), 17 genera (15 mosses and two liverworts) and 23 species (21 mosses and two liverworts). Sematophyllaceae was the most representative family w ith four species (Trichosteleum subdemissum, Microcalpe subsimplex, Brittonodoxa subpinnata, and Taxithelium planum), followed by Dicranaceae, Fissidentaceae, and Pott… Show more

“…With 75% of the territory covered by remnant vegetation of three different biomes, the state of Maranhão ranks 23 rd in terms of bryophyte species richness among the 26 Brazilian states according to Costa and Peralta (2015). These data have changed since then, due to recent publications which have documented species from Maranhão for the first time (Costa et al , 2018Vieira et al 2017;Oliveira et al 2018aOliveira et al , 2018bOliveira et al , 2018cOliveira et al , 2018dSilva et al 2018aSilva et al , 2018bBonfim et al 2019), as in our study. Therefore, the state of Maranhão now ranks 14 th among the states.…”

“…The leafy liverwort species of CMNP represents 39% of the leafy liverworts recorded in the state and corresponds to 17% of the total number (236 species) of bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) occurring in the state (Yano et al 1987(Yano et al , 2009He and Grolle 2001;Conceição and Brito 2010;Santos and Conceição 2010;Peralta et al 2011;Varão et al 2011;Macedo and Ilkiu-Borges 2014;Ilkiu-Borges 2012, 2014;Vieira et al 2017;Oliveira et al 2018aOliveira et al , 2018bOliveira et al , 2018cOliveira et al , 2018dCosta et al 2018;Silva et al 2018aSilva et al , 2018bBonfim et al 2019). These results demonstrate the importance of CMNP to the bryophyte flora of Maranhão.…”

“…Para a construção do banco de dados foram examinadas 4.791 exsicatas com informações sobre as coletas de Briófitas para o Maranhão, tendo como base o Herbário Prof. Aluízio Bittencourt (HABIT), da Universidade Estadual do Maranhão/UEMA campus Caxias, além de coletas com registros de espécimes obtidos no Herbário Virtual (http://reflora.jbrj.gov.br/reflora/herbarioVirtual), GBIF (https://www.gbif.org/) e SpeciesLink (http://splink.cria.org.br/). Foram utilizadas também as bibliografias com indicação de táxons de briófitas ocorrentes no estado com a indicação de voucher [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46].…”

“…Os primeiros levantamentos inteiramente realizados no Maranhão foram realizados entre o início de 2000 a 2010 [28][29][30][31][32]. Na última década houve um incremento de trabalhos publicados, apresentando mais de 100 novos registros de espécies de briófitas para o estado [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47]. Dessa forma, existe uma necessidade de entender a distribuição dessas espécies catalogadas, conhecendo as áreas com maior e menor esforço amostral e contribuir no entendimento das lacunas de conhecimento do estado em relação a diversidade do grupo, pois a brioflora maranhense, assim como outros grupos, vem sofrendo com a pressão antrópica.…”
