Bryophytes including mosses, liverworts, and hornworts are among the earliest land plants,
and occupy a crucial phylogenetic position to aid in the understanding of plant …

Bryophytes were a pivotal step in land plant evolution, and their significance in the
regulation of ecosystems and the conservation of biodiversity is becoming increasingly …

Bryophyte Biology provides an extensive overview of the hornworts, liverworts, and mosses;
diverse groups of land plants that occupy a great variety of habitats throughout the world …

Tropical landscapes are dominated by land‐use systems, but their contribution to the
conservation of biodiversity is largely unknown. Since changes in biodiversity in response to …

Epiphytes have been called particularly vulnerable to climate change because of their
existence at the interface of vegetation and atmosphere. We review the available evidence …

We studied species richness, composition, and vertical distribution of vascular epiphytes at
two sites in the Bolivian Andes. To account for the epiphyte flora on understory trees …

A protocol for rapid and representative sampling of vascular and non-vascular epiphytes
(excluding epiphylls) is presented for one hectare of tropical rain forest, including montane …

Poikilohydric desiccation tolerance enables lichens and bryophytes to survive long periods
of water limitation and to recover quickly by rehydration. The evolutionary success of this …

Species richness, community composition and ecology of cryptogamic epiphytes
(bryophytes, macrolichens) were studied in upper montane primary, early secondary and …

To study the impact of deforestation on vascular epiphyte diversity, we compared species
richness in plots in primary forest and adjacent 15-year-old fallows in two different sites in …
