THE BRYOPHYTE FLORA OF THE ERDŐTELEK ARBORETUM IN HUNGARY

Abstract: According to the present investigations 54 bryophyte species were collected in the Arboretum of Erdőtelek, including 3 liverworts and 51 mosses. Most of this species are common in Hungary, one of them is vulnerable (Orthotrichum patens) and three species are listed as near threatened in the Hungarian Red Data List: Brachythecium glareosum, Cirriphyllum piliferum and Orthotrichum obtusifolium. In the recent paper a comparison of the number of bryophytes recorded in Hungarian botanical gardens and arboretums is presented

The bryophyte flora of the Erdőtelek Arboretum in Hungary

According to the present investigations 54 bryophyte species were collected in the Arboretum of Erdőtelek, including 3 liverworts and 51 mosses. Most of this species are common in Hungary, one of them is vulnerable (Orthotrichum patens) and three species are listed as near threatened in the Hungarian Red Data List: Brachythecium glareosum, Cirriphyllum piliferum and Orthotrichum obtusifolium. In the recent paper a comparison of the number of bryophytes recorded in Hungarian botanical gardens and arboretums is presented

THE BRYOPHYTE DIVERSITY OF CENTRAL PARK (ARCHBISHOP’S GARDEN) OF EGER TOWN (HUNGARY)

The objective of the present work was the evaluation of the bryophyte diversity of the central park of Eger town. Altogether 59 taxa (4 liverworts and 55 mosses) were recorded. Nearly half of the identified species (49%) belong to three families: Orthotrichaceae, Pottiaceae, and Brachytheciaceae. Brachythecium glareosum, Cirriphyllum piliferum, Eucladium verticillatum, Orthotrichum obtusifolium and Orthotrichum pumilum are rated near threatened (NT) according to the Hungarian Red List. Some of the taxa found in Eger were not known from other central east european urban parks (Ctenidium molluscum, Hygroamblystegium tenax, Pohlia melanodon, Cirriphyllum crassinervium, Hypnum cupressiforme var. lacunosum, Orthotrichum stramineum and Orthotrichum striatum). There are remarkable differences between central park of Eger and other Central and Eastern European parks regarding species composition and the percentage of species in each of the life strategy categories

THE BRYOPHYTE FLORA OF THE PARK OF MÁTRAI GYÓGYINTÉZET SANATORIUM (NE HUNGARY)

The aim of this study was to explore the bryophyte diversity in the garden of Mátrai Gyógyintézet Sanatorium. In the investigated area 65 bryophytes were found, 3 liverworts and 62 mosses. Some near threatened taxa according to the Hungarian Red List were detected in the territory: Brachythecium glareosum, Cirriphyllum piliferum, Orthotrichum pumilum, Rhynchostegiella tenella and Syntrichia latifolia. The recent record of Syntrichia latifolia is the second in the North Hungarian Mountains, and the first in Mátra Mountains

The Bryophyte Flora of the Szent István University Gödöllő Botanical Garden

This is the first bryofloristic study in the Gödöllő Botanical Garden of Szent István University. The aim of the study was to determine the species composition, taxonomic and ecological diversity of bryophytes of the garden and to determine their prevalence in the area. Altogether 69 bryophyte taxa (3 liverworts and 66 mosses) were identified belonging to 24 families and 44 genera. Most species were found in the research area in epigeic habitats (26 taxa) and least were found in epixylic habitats (5 taxa). Most of them are considered to be common in Hungary, however, five species are listed as near threatened on the current Hungarian Red Data List: Brachythecium glareosum, Dicranella howei, Didymodon insulanus, Fissidens viridulus, Nyholmiella obtusifolia
