Abstract

The Baikal-Lensky State Natural Reserve was established in 1986. It covers a part of the north-western coastof Lake Baikal from Cape Onholoy to Cape Elokhin and the adjacent section of the Baikal ridge. The article describes thecharacteristics of the natural conditions of the reserve. Large-scale studies of the bryophyte flora in the reserve have not beencarried out. Currently, 195 species of bryophytes are known here (37 species of liverworts and 158 species of mosses). The listof bryophytes of the Baikal-Lensky Nature Reserve contains 33 species of liverworts and 135 leafy mosses. Platydictya acuminata (Lindb. et Arnel) Ignatov and Hamatocaulis vernicosus (Mitt.) Hedenäs are included in the Red Book of Irkutsk Oblast.Bryological material on the Baikal-Lensky nature reserve, collected by N. V. Stepantsova, has been analyzed. New species ofliverworts (4 species) and leafy mosses (19 species) were revealed. The territory of the Baikal-Lensky Nature Reserve requiresspecial bryological studies. Taking into account the peculiarities of the natural conditions of the reserve, we assume a significant replenishment of the list of bryoflora. We believe that the bryoflora of the Baikal-Lensky Reserve has been studied by lessthan 50 %. The detection of liverworts is approximately 25–30 %, leaf-stem mosses – 40–45 %.
