0 a small plant without flowers that produces spores. There are many species (= types) of liverwort, some of which are similar to mosses.
There are a number of other rare plants, including the rare downy willow, as well as mosses and liverworts.
Lejeuneaceae (liverworts; 32 species) were the largest family, representing 40% of all the bryophyte species recorded.
Biota includes algal crusts and felts (11 species), bryophytes (one species of moss and one of liverwort), a protozoan, and a range of microflora.
In the non-vascular subplot, collective cover values f or mosses, liverworts, macrolichens and crustose lichens were recorded in the field, and mean thickness of the non-vascular layer.
This paper focuses on bryophytes (mosses, liverworts) in tropical rain forests and deals with the question of how deforestation and forest regeneration affect the diversity of these organisms.
The pendants - pendulous forms - were conspicuous but represented in our samples by only four moss and one liverwort species.
The remaining bark was mostly covered with crustose lichens, but we also observed smaller mosses and liverworts (< 2 mm height) or algae.
The associated floristic differences include an increase in cover of mosses and crustose lichens in the upper ridge and a decrease in liverwort cover.
