Sciuro-hypnum glaciale (Brachytheciaceae, Bryophyta) is an important moss species that should be protected in terms of Türkiye's biodiversity. In the Flora of Türkiye, this species was only known in the Eastern Black Sea Region, from the Ordu province. With this study, a new locality record of this rare taxon in Türkiye was given from the Cappadocia Region, and contributed to the Flora of Türkiye. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, the bryophyte flora of the Tamdere, Eğribel, Bektaş and Kulakkaya High Plateaus and their surroundings (Dereli district, Giresun province) were investigated. As a result of identification, a total of 208 bryophytes taxa were determined from 19 different localities. Of these, 33 taxa liverworts and 175 taxa mosses. Among them Jungermannia eucordifolia Schljakov was reported for the second time from Turkey, In addition, Buxbaumia viridis Moug. ex Lam. & DC.) Brid. ex Moug.& Nestl. and Ceratodon conicus (Hampe) Lindb. are new to the A4 grid-square. Furthermore, 10 taxa are new for Giresun province and 20 taxa are new for Dereli district. For every each taxon, the habitat pattern and distribution data are given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, the moss flora of the Çaykara district of Trabzon was investigated in detail. As a result of the identification of bryophyte specimens collected from 14 different localities in May and July 2018, and October 2019 in the study area, 175 bryophyte taxa belonging to 51 families and 96 genera were identified. Of these taxa, 28 are liverwort (13 families and 17 genera), and 147 are mosses (38 families and 79 genera). Within the determined taxa, Cephaloziella rubella (Nees) Warnst is new to the A4 grid square, Philonotis rigida Brid. and Schistidium dupretii (Thér.) W.A.Weber are new record for Trabzon province. In addition, 172 bryophyte taxa determined from the study area are new records for the Çaykara district. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present study is based on moss specimens collected from several urban habitats in Ankara University Beşevler 10. Yıl Campus in the year 2019. As a result of identifications of 94 bryophyte specimens collected from the campus area, a total of 28 species belonging to 7 families and 17 genera were determined. Six of them are new record for B7 grid-square. Pottiaceae (9 species) and Orthotrichaceae (6 species) are the two largest families in the campus area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As a result of bryological excursion carried out in the Hayrat district of Trabzon province, a total of 99 bryophyte taxa, including 18 liverworts and 81 mosses, were determined from the samples collected from 6 different localities. All of these taxa were reported for the first time from Hayrat district. Brachythecium capillaceum (F.Weber & D.Mohr) Giacom. was recorded as a new record for Trabzon province and the second record for A4 grid-square. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
