Platyhypnum is a genus of mosses in the family Amblystegiaceae.. Previously accepted as Ochyraea, that genus was named in honour of Ryszard Ochyra (born 1949), a Polish bryologist [2] and was circumscribed by Jiří Váňa in J. Bryol. vol.14 on page 261 in 1986.
In some parts of Europe and North America the species has become mildly invasive, as it temporarily may have a negative and local impact on the diversity. It was first discovered in Britain in 1941, and its spread has been well documented since. In Europe alone, this species has spread in over a thousand-mile radius within the span of 70 years.
Isopterygiopsis muelleriana – Mueller's silk-moss; Isopterygiopsis pulchella – neat silk-moss; Isothecium alopecuroides – larger mouse-tail moss; Isothecium holtii – Holt's mouse-tail moss; Isothecium myosuroides – slender mouse-tail moss; Kiaeria blyttii – Blytt's fork-moss [2] Kiaeria falcata [1] – sickle-leaved fork-moss
In Europe, the only other species belonging to this section, alongside S. teres, is S. squarrosum; [14] two additional species, S. mirum and S. tundrae, are included outside of Europe. [ 15 ] The presence of plants exhibiting intermediate characteristics between Sphagnum teres and S. squarrosum , as well as their close genetic relationship ...
Moss diversity is generally not associated with latitude; boreal and temperate moss diversity is similar to tropical moss diversity. Moss diversity hotspots are found in the northern Andes mountains, Mexico, the Himalayan mountains, Madagascar, Japan, the highlands of eastern Africa, Southeast Asia, central Europe, Scandinavia, and British ...
It occurs in the western British Isles, Western Europe, Mediterranean France, and the Channel Islands, usually in coastal areas. [6] Verrucula maritimaria is a lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungus that is known to parasitise Flavoplaca maritima. [7] In the Netherlands, the moss Hydropunctarietea maurae is a common associate with Flavoplaca ...
Gametophyte (leafy vegetation) and sporophyte (upright stalks) generations of Plagiomnium cuspidatum. Plagiomnium cuspidatum, also known as toothed or “baby-tooth” plagiomnium moss and woodsy thyme-moss, is a species of thyme-moss that originated in North America, but can now also be found throughout Middle America, Africa, Northern and Southern Asia (excluding China), and Europe.
