Abstract

This study introduces the bryological history and literature of the Korean Peninsula. The French missionary Urban Faurie was the first person to collect Korean bryophytes at the beginning of the 20th century. Most of his bryophyte collections from Korea were studied and recorded by Jules Cardot (for mosses) and by Franz Stephani (for liverworts). Japanese studies of Korean bryophytes were described in chronological order. Hong Won Shic and Choe Du Mun carried out an inventory and flora research on bryophytes in South Korea. The most recent bryological studies of North Korea are also reviewed here as a reference.
