Abstract

Abstract. We present a substantially revised and updated bryophyte flora for the 2.4 million ha Denali National Park and Preserve (DNPP) based on wide-ranging field investigations conducted over the period 2001–2011. We visited 39 inventory sites and 45 vegetation monitoring study areas within DNPP, increasing the number of bryophyte taxa previously known by 147. 499 taxa are reported in this updated flora (380 moss taxa in 134 genera and 119 liverwort taxa in 43 genera). We provide geographic and ecological summaries through annotations and distribution maps for 24 of the most noteworthy finds, as well as comments on patterns of bryophyte community composition and dominance in this large and previously poorly-studied region.
