Wijk. & Marg. are new to Valencia region. Also some ecological aspects of the potholes and the bryophytes studied are [email protected] ; [email protected]
The bryophyte flora of the city of Valencia (Eastern Spain)
Bryophytes constitute an important part of the unmanaged plant diversity of urban areas, however, it is generally overlooked and poorly understood. In this study, we investigate the urban bryoflora of Valencia, the third most important Spanish city. A total of 1,178 bryophyte samples from 94 sampling sites were identified rendering 102 taxa, 96 mosses and 6 liverworts. Despite the high overall taxon richness, the number of taxa per locality was rather low, 12.53±8.06. The sites that harbored the highest taxon richness were those with a variety of natural, old and relatively unmanaged substrates such as the Botanical Garden, Viveros Garden and the Turia River Garden. The high species richness shown in our study may relate to a combination of factors, including the diversity of habitats represented, the sampling intensity and the recentness of this study. This study adds 18 taxa new to the Spanish urban bryoflora, one species new to the Valencian Community and other five new to both, the Spanish urban bryoflora and the Valencian Community
An eco-physiological and biotechnological approach to conservation of the world-wide rare and endangered aquatic liverwort Riella helicophylla (Bory et Mont.) Mont.
The rare aquatic liverwort Riella helicophylla (Bory et Mont.) Mont., inhabitant of temporary shallow ponds around the Mediterranean basin, is considered threatened throughout its distribution range. In addition, little is known of its biology and ecology or of its role in such an important ecosystem where environmental conditions vary yearly in unpredictable ways. In these variable habitats, due to the seasonal fluctuation of water levels, there is no guarantee of yearly spore input into the spore bank. Spore germination rate and the effects of different culture media in an axenic culture establishment, as well as propagation procedures of R. helicophylla, were tested. New insights into the ecology and biology of R. helicophylla are given. Spore dormancy is documented, and the protocols for the in vitro culture establishment, propagation and acclimatization of this liverwort are developed. Dry storage at 20 ± 2 °C for about three months broke the dormancy of spores, which subsequently germinated in a high percentage (over 90%). A two phase (solid and liquid) culture media system was developed for the purpose of achieving fully developed gametophytes. The liquid phase contained electrolytes simulating brackish water
Localizadas en Antequera (Málaga) las primeras poblaciones para Europa continental de la hepática mundialmente rara, Riella affinis
Riella Mont. es un género de plantas acuáticas talosas, con unas características morfológicas y ecológicas muy singulares que las hacen destacar sobre el conjunto de las hepáticas. Una de sus peculiaridades es que crecen sumergidas en aguas dulces y salobres, principalmente en lagunas temporales de zonas áridas o semiáridas, aunque también lo hacen en arroyos someros y de forma más rara en lagos permanentes. Las lagunas temporales, su principal hábitat, son humedales con una fase seca recurrente que, en la región Mediterránea, suele coincidir con el verano
World checklist of hornworts and liverworts
A working checklist of accepted taxa worldwide is vital in achieving the goal of developing an online flora of all known plants by 2020 as part of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation. We here present the first-ever worldwide checklist for liverworts (Marchantiophyta) and hornworts (Anthocerotophyta) that includes 7486 species in 398 genera representing 92 families from the two phyla. The checklist has far reaching implications and applications, including providing a valuable tool for taxonomists and systematists, analyzing phytogeographic and diversity patterns, aiding in the assessment of floristic and taxonomic knowledge, and identifying geographical gaps in our understanding of the global liverwort and hornwort flora. The checklist is derived from a working data set centralizing nomenclature, taxonomy and geography on a global scale. Prior to this effort a lack of centralization has been a major impediment for the study and analysis of species richness, conservation and systematic research at both regional and global scales. The success of this checklist, initiated in 2008, has been underpinned by its community approach involving taxonomic specialists working towards a consensus on taxonomy, nomenclature and distribution
