Abstract

The paper presents the results of studies on bryophyte flora of the Molenda forest reserve located in the Central Poland. Fifteen species of liverworts and 73 species of mosses were found. Twenty one of these species are considered to be partially protected by law, three endangered and ten rare in the region. Epigean bryophyte constitute the largest ecological group in the bryophyte flora, consisting of 55 species (62% of total flora), followed by epixylic species which are represented by 48 species (54%). The most interesting were taxa threatened and regionally rare, such as Nowellia curvifolia (Dicks.) Mitt., Callicla­dium haldanianum (Grev.) H.A. Crum, Dicranoweisia cirrata (Hedw.) Lindb., Orthodicranum tauricum (Sapjegin) Smirnova, Orthodontium lineare Schwägr., Orthotrichum pulchellum Brunt., O. stramineum Hornsch. ex Brid., Sciu­ro-hypnum refle­xum (Starke) Ignatov & Huttunen, Ulota bruchii Hornsch. ex Brid. and U. crispa (Hedw.) Brid.
