“…the remaining mosses had been recorded recently by and Youssef et al (2018). It is worth mentioning that all the taxa reported in this work are recorded here for the first time from Gharyan area except Bryum dichotomum (el-Saadawi et al, 2017). the only earlier work on Gharyan was that of Bottini (1914).…”

“…the list of mosses of the Mediterranean area published by ros et al (2013) showed that a total of 91 taxa were known from Libya. records continued and the number of mosses known from Libya reached 102 taxa in the latest list published by el-Saadawi et al (2017). the 102 taxa belong to 45 genera, in 16 families and 8 orders all under class Bryopsida.…”

T hree taxa of Pottiaceae; Crossidium laevipilum thér. & trab., Didymodon umbrosus (Müll.hal.) r.h.Zander and Tortula brevissima Schiffn. are new records to the moss flora of Libya bringing the number of mosses known from this country to 105 taxa. Furthermore, the present work adds 14 moss taxa to Gharyan area which raises the moss known from it to 27 taxa. Descriptions, illustrations, floristic and distribution remarks are provided for the three new records to Libya.

“…The present study is based on the floristic information pertaining to the 13 hepatics of Egypt given by El-Saadawi and Shabbara (2007) and other references therein included particularly Arnell (1963), Jovet-Ast and Bischler (1970), Bischler (1993) and Ros et al (2007), which included details of collection data and distribution.…”

“…Just over 200 bryophytes are, hitherto, known from Egypt (El-Saadawi and Shabbara, 2007;El-Saadawi et al, 2015;El-Sakaty et al, 2018;Khalil and Farag, 2018;Hassan et al, 2019;Taha and Holyoak in Ellis et al, 2019;Taha, 2020). The majority (188 taxa) are mosses while only 13 species belong to the liverworts.…”

About 200 species of bryophytes are currently known from Egypt. The majority are mosses, only 13 species belong to the liverworts while no hornworts exist. Regarding the liverworts, and following simplified methods used by previous workers, 11 out of the 13 species are listed under threatened categories; 6 of them are in the CR category, 4 in the EN category, 1 in the VU category and 2 are considered not threatened. This evaluation documents the situation at the time of collection, i.e. from 1958 to 1999, which is quite a long time, however, it is basic for any future Red Listing of bryophytes in the country.

L ITTLE is still known about the composition and distribution of vegetation in the Mediterranean region, especially urban flora, and vegetation. Until recently, regional -scale ecological and evolutionary patterns of urban areas have tended to be ignored, as conservation efforts have been concerned mostly with species and their habitats. A combination of social, ecological experiences and direct field observations were carried out to record the plant taxa that are found in the urban areas of Alexandria city. The present study represents the first work to explore a recently neglected urban flora. In this study, we identified plant taxa and life forms from a typical natural site with different anthropogenic activities to assess the status of the vegetation type. 338 plant species (including the inferaspecific taxa) were recorded in the study area, most of them were therophytes (50%), and about 19 % are cultivated for ornamentals purposes or as crops. Only three endemic taxa were recorded in the studied urban habitat: Anthemis microsperma Boiss. & Kotschy, Sonchus macrocarpus Boulos & C. Jeffrey, Thesium humile var. maritima Simps. (N.D. Simpson) F.M. Saad, while 91 (26.9%) alien taxa were recorded, out of which six were invasive, and seven were recorded for the first time in the present study, three of them are considered new record species: Nicotiana glutinosa L., Sesuvium portulacastrum (L.) L. and Commelina erecta L.
