Abstract

Spectral reflectance indices of green state of Warnstorfia fontinaliopsis, Chorisodontium aciphyllum and Sanionia georgicouncinata on moss bank in the Galindez Island (Argentine Islands) were measured using a handheld spectrometer PolyPen RP 410 UVIS (Photon Systems Instruments, Drásov, Czech Republic) within the range of 380–790 nm in order to find suitable ones for effective classification of moss species within the same colour state (green). Among altogether 19 indices tested, there were some which did not differ significantly between the studied species (subgroup 1). Other indices (subgroup 2) were sensitive enough to distinguish one of the studied species from the others, and finally (subgroup 3), they were found statistically significantly different for all studied moss species. Also, the indices calculated at wavelengths typical for UAV spectral cameras (green, red and red edge channels) showed species-specific differences and can be potentially used to distinguish between different mosses within the same green physiological state indicating a good vigor.
