Epiphytic communities offer an original framework to disentangle the contributions of
environmental filters, biotic interactions and dispersal limitations to community structure at …

At the interface between atmosphere and vegetation, epiphytic floras have been largely
used as indicators of air quality. The recovery of epiphytes from high levels of SO2 pollution …

Introduction Half a century since the creation of the International Association of Bryologists,
we carried out a review to identify outstanding challenges and future perspectives in …

Epiphytes offer an appealing framework to disentangle the contributions of chance, biotic
and abiotic drivers of species distributions. In the context of the stress‐gradient theory, we …

Epiphytes typically exhibit clustered distribution patterns, but predicting the spatial variation
of their distribution at fine scales has long been a challenge. Taking advantage of a canopy …

Aim Digitization of herbarium specimens and DNA sequencing efforts in the past decade
have enabled integrative analyses of patterns of diversity and endemism in a phylogenetic …

Aim The historical biogeography of the Antarctic terrestrial flora remains poorly studied and
understood. Long‐term in situ persistence of mosses was demonstrated but region‐wide …

The 174 species of bryophytes known for Barro Colorado Island (BCI) include 85 liverworts
(Marchantiophyta) and 1 hornwort (Anthocerotophyta), in addition to 92 mosses. Among the …

Bryophytes generally have broad geographical ranges that suggest high dispersal ability.
The aim of this study was to test hypotheses about dispersal limitation, as indicated by …

Species identification and phylogenetic relationship clarification are fundamental goals in
species delimitation. However, these tasks pose challenges when based on morphologies …
