Description | Dicranella staphylina and Gymnocolea inflata have been recorded as species new to Bulgaria. D. staphyllina occupied a disturbed open calcareous spring in Mt Lozenska. Gymnocolea inflata, a common bog species in the Northern, Western and Central Europe, has been found in an alpine spring fen fed by extremely acid and mineral-poor waters in the Rila Mts. Calliergon richardsonii and Meesia triquetra are species of reported occurrence in the current checklist of Bulgarian bryophytes, to be confirmed by herbarium vouchers. We revised the specimens and found that they have been incorrectly determined. The occurrence of these boreal species in Bulgaria is therefore uncertain. |
