Lewinskya,a New Genus to Accommodate the Phaneroporous and Monoicous Taxa ofOrthotrichum(Bryophyta, Orthotrichaceae)

Spores potentially dispersed to longer distances are more tolerant to ultraviolet radiation: A case study in the moss genus Orthotrichum

“…Additionally, the results obtained are congruent with the fact that xerochastic species are more widely geographically distributed than hygrochastic species. Specifically, both Orthotrichum striatum and O. rupestre are very widely distributed (the former throughout the Holarctic region and the latter almost cosmopolitan), whereas O. acuminatum , and especially O. ibericum , have more restricted distributions (Lara et al., ). Thus, a reduced UV tolerance may substantially decrease the probability that viable spores successfully reach appropriate distant places to develop.…”

Bryophytes records from Maçka District (Trabzon Province-Turkey)

“…Also new records for the A4 square, according to the grid system of Henderson (Henderson, 1961) are indicated with (*) in the bryofloristic list. Nomenclature of the species follows Ros et al (2007) and Söderström et al (2016) for liverworts and Ros et al (2013), Plášek et al (2015), Lara et al (2016) and Hodgetts et al (2019) for mosses. The species list is arranged according to the system proposed by Goffinet et al (2009).…”

Epiphytic bryophyte vegetation of Beldibi and Babadağ forests (Zonguldak, Turkey)

“…The determination of the associations in the present study was carried out via comparison with related associations in Marstaller (2006) and classified with the aid of published studies. For the identification of the epiphytic bryophyte specimens, different floras, monographies and revisions were used (Nyholm 1981;Hedenäs 1992;Smith 2004;Zander 1993;Paton 1999;Cortini Pedrotti 2001, 2006Heyn and Herrnstadt 2004;Frey et al 2006;Guerra and Cros 2007;Casas et al 2009;Frey 2011, Plášek et al 2015;Lara et al 2016).…”
