1. Romania Buxbaumia viridis Coiba Mare Seligeria pusilla 1 mm A contribution to the moss flora of the Apuseni Mountains (Romania) Svatava Kubešová Moravian Museum, Department of Botany, Hviezdoslavova 29a, CZ 627 00 Brno, Czech Republic e-mail: skubesova@mzm.cz METHODS The bryophytes were collected in July 2003 in the Bihor Mountains. Altogether 23 localities were visited. STUDY AREA The Bihor Mountains (Apuseni Mountains) lie in Carpathians in the western part of Romania. Altitudes range between 600 and 1800 m. Most of visited localities lie in the Padiş area (Cetatea Rădesei, Cetăţile Ponorului, Gheţarul Focul Viu, La Grajduri, Poiana Ponor). It is formed of limestone and it has a typical Karstic relief. • RESULTS • 105 moss species were recorded • 1 moss species is vulnerable in Europe (ECCB) – Buxbaumia viridis • 3 mosses are very rare, 8 species are rare and 18 taxa are sporadic species in Romania SPORADIC SPECIES (sensu Dihoru, 1994) Antitrichia curtipentula Campylium halleri Cratoneuron decipiens Eucladium verticillatum Eurhynchium angustirete Hylocomium umbratum Meesia uliginosa Myurella julacea VERY RARE SPECIES (sensu Dihoru, 1994) Cirriphyllum cirrosum Rhytidiadelphus subpinnatus Timmia norvegica RARE SPECIES (sensu Dihoru, 1994) Buxbaumia viridis Hygrohypnum duriusculum Hygrohypnum ochraceum Lescuraea incurvata Mnium thomsonii Plagiobryum zieri Racomitrium aciculare Zygodon viridissimus var. vulgaris Cetăţile Rădesei Orthothecium intricatum Orthothecium rufescens Plagiomnium medium Plagiothecium undulatum Pohlia wahlenbergiiRhizomnium magnifolium Rhytidiadelphus loreus Seligeria pusilla Thamnium alopecurum Tortella inclinata Plagiothecium undulatum Cetăţile Ponorului CHECK-LIST OF RECORDED MOSSES Amblystegium serpens (Hedw.)
