“…This species was known previously in Urals from two findings in Vishera State Nature Reserve (Konstantinova & Bezgodov, 2005) and one collection in the Upper Puiva River area (Konstantinova & Lapshina, 2017). The species is extremely rare in Europe where it is recorded in the type locality in Murmansk Province and recently in Ural in Vishera State Nature Reserve (Konstantinova et al 2019). However the species is not rare in Siberia including the mountains of South Siberia (l. c.) so its finding in the Asian part of the Urals is more or less predictable.…”

“…The liverwort flora of the Khulga River basin counts 84 species including seven (Arnellia fennica, Frullania austinii, Mesoptychia rutheana, Metzgeria furcata, Porella platyphylla, Scapania sphaerifera and Schistochilopsis grandiretis) new for the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area. Of these, Scapania sphaerifera was not previ-ously known for the Urals and was only recently discovered almost simultaneously on both the European and Asian parts of these mountains (Konstantinova et al, 2019). Locations in the Urals are almost 1,500 kilometers away from the only known location of the species in Europe and 1,800 kilometers and more from the Asian locations of the species.…”

The annotated list of liverworts of Khulga River Basin (Subpolar Urals, north-east part of Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra) is compiled based on identification of 300 specimens gathered by E. D. Lapshina and I. V. Filippov in 2018. It counts 84 species, among them two species new for the Urals and five species (Arnellia fennica, Frullania austinii, Mesoptychia rutheana, Metzgeria furcata, Scapania sphaerifera) new for Subpolar Urals. Annotations to the species include distribution, description of habitats and data on reproduction structures. Comparison with two previously studied local floras as well as the full list of liverworts of Asian part of the Urals is provided. A total of 144 species have now been recorded in three studies of the Urals territories within the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area.

“…The reported habitat for the European sites is deadwood in humid, shady areas; the colonised logs are mostly near mountain streams, in ravines, or on deadwood in mountain forests influenced by slope pressure water [6,[13][14][15]. Except for Scapania carinthiaca, there are also reports of the species on siliceous rocks near streams [6].…”

Scapania apiculata, Scapania carinthiaca, and Scapania scapanioides are rare deadwood-dwelling liverworts threatened across Europe. Scapania carinthiaca is thus listed in the Habitats Directive. However, their distribution data are scattered, and their ecologic demands are insufficiently studied. Here, we present new locations and data on the ecology of the species, which resulted from a targeted search in selected regions of Austria. We found ten new sites each for Scapania apiculata and Scapania scapanioides and twenty for Scapania carinthiaca. Reproduction was exclusively asexual. The macroclimates of all known locations in Austria did not differ significantly between the three species. It was consistently wet, with a mean annual precipitation of 1615.3 mm, a high evenness of rainfall, and a low desiccation risk. The mean temperature averaged 7.4 °C. The habitat was shaded dead wood of Picea abies, Abies alba, and Fagus sylvatica of all decay stages at a median distance of 2.5 m from streams or springy areas in semi-natural forests of montane and submontane regions. Thus, high deadwood volumes under a suitable climate are a prerequisite for the occurrences of the species. The number of locations of new finds has more than doubled in Austria and thus in Europe.

The Sette-Daban Range, about 650 km long, is the southernmost part of theVerkhoyansk Mountains System. The only information on the liverworts of the range so far has been based on the results of field research 2000–2001. The bedrock of the Sette-Daban Range consists mainly of limestone and dolomites, while the rest of the Verkhoyansk Mountains System is composed of acid rocks. Because of this, the flora of the liverworts of the Sette-Daban Range differs significantly in its species. The present research was carried out in 2015–2017 in the basins of the Vostochnaya Handyga and Sakkyryr rivers using the route method in different habitats throughout the vertical profile. The annotated list describes the growth conditions of each species and indicates the structures associated with reproduction. A total of 44 species were identified. Of these, Apopellia alpicola and A. megaspora are new for Yakutia, 22 species are new to the flora of the Sette-Daban Range, seven species are rare in the territory of Yakutia or in the mountains of the northeast of the republic (Arnellia fennica, Eocalypogeia schusteriana, Frullania subarctica, Lejeunea alaskana, Mannia triandra, Sauteria alpina, Scapania sphaerifera). Eocalypogeia schusteriana, Mannia triandra, and Scapania sphaerifera are included in List of Russian Protected Species, Lejeunea alaskana — in the Red Data Book of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). At present, 69 species are known for the liverwort flora of the Sette-Daban Range. Sette-Daban is the habitat and conservation area of many basiphilic and calcephilic liverworts, rarely found in the Verkhoyansk and Chersk Mountain systems.
