“…from the number of 19 species found altogether in Belgrade's built-up areas, 16 occurred only in urban parks and other green surfaces (Sabovljević & Grdović 2009). The same was observed in Aydin (Kirmaci & Ağcagil 2009), where out of 18 species registered on built-up areas, as many as 15 were limited to urban green areas. It should be highlighted that Wroclaw parks are situated close to compactly built-up city centrum and surrounded with urban buildings; some of them were established on former cemeteries or riverside woodlands, but nowadays they are not connected with urban forests (Fudali 2001).…”

Studies on epiphytic bryophyte species richness and diversity in various urban-use complexes in Wroclaw (excluding urban forests) were conducted in 2013-2016 to check the research hypothesis that, in spite of the observed phenomenon of return of bryophytic epiphytes to cities, urban parks still favor species richness and the diversity of bryophytic epiphytes in built-up areas. Epiphytes (38 species) were recorded in all distinguished urban-use complexes but with strongly differentiated frequency, and 64% of all the trees colonized with epiphytes were situated either along streets or inside urban green areas (32% in each). It was shown that the highest species richness (89% of all the species found), bryophyte total coverage and values of the diversity indices referred to the latter complex. 20 species revealed preferences to occur mostly or exclusively on trees situated in urban parks. The second urban-use complex, which visibly affected the distribution of epiphytes, was the complex of streets; Tortula muralis occurred only on trees along streets and six other species occurred more frequently in these complexes than in others: Orthotrichum diaphanum, O. pumilum, O. pallens, Ceratodon purpureus, Syntrichia virescens, Bryum argenteum. In general, epiphytes – which were recorded on more than 20 trees – colonized a large number of phorophytes, from 12 to 33. They also showed some tendencies to occupy trunks of some host tree species more frequently than others. Detailed data are provided.

New Pottiaceae records to the moss flora of Libya

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

P OTTIACEAE includes up to 5,311 species worldwide. It is the largest moss family in Libya with 41 out of a total of 98 species known from this country. Most of the species are quite old records based on collections published before 1932. In this recent work 20 Pottiaceae mosses are reported from Libya including two new records namely; Microbryum rectum (With.) R.H.Zander and Weissia controversa var. crispata (Nees and Hornsch.) Nyholm. Descriptions and illustrations of the two new records together with geographic distribution and brief comments on all taxa are given.

“…Além disso, em relação à floresta natural, esses habitats modificados evidenciam brioflora mais pobre (Pôrto et al, 2004;Gradstein & Sporn, 2010;Visnadi, 2013a). Contudo, áreas antrópicas protegidas e com habitats para as briófitas, mesmo que se localizem no centro urbano, são relevantes para a proteção da brioflora local (Kirmaci & Ağcagil, 2009).…”

Parques urbanos possibilitam ao público melhor compreensão da ação humana sobre o meio ambiente, como os parques Previdência e Independência, onde as briófitas foram estudadas nas áreas antrópicas, em bosque heterogêneo e na floresta ombrófila densa. O material (382 exsicatas), depositado nos herbários do Instituto de Pesquisas Ambientais e da Prefeitura do Município de São Paulo, revela uma brioflora (67 espécies) heterogênea para a área de estudo. A riqueza em espécies – maior na floresta ombrófila densa (Parque Previdência), menor na área antrópica (Parque Independência) e intermediária em bosques heterogêneos (ambos os parques) – evidencia a importância da brioflora como indicador da qualidade ambiental nesses locais. A brioflora mais rica para vegetação conspícua e densa (Parque Previdência) e o contrário disso para paisagens menos arborizadas (Parque Independência) confirmam que a arborização é importante para a conservação das briófitas nos parques urbanos paulistanos. O fato de mais espécies terem sido registradas na área do Parque Previdência, que está situada em região densamente arborizada, do que para o Parque Independência, situado em região mais urbanizada, demonstra que as briófitas são também úteis para o monitoramento da qualidade ambiental na cidade de São Paulo. Os parques possuem espécies endêmicas do Brasil e uma espécie ameaçada de extinção no estado paulista. Palavras-chave: Área antrópica. Bosque heterogêneo. Briófitas. Floresta ombrófila densa. Parque Independência. Parque Previdência.
