It consists of 327 taxa representing 141 genera and 62 families. This list is based on literature reports from 1888, and it represents the first check-list for the bryophytes of this country. Reports before 1950 are distinguished from those based on more recent records. Some taxa previously reported for Albania, but from localities actually outside Albanian present-day political borders are indicated and excluded. Synonyms from the works considered are reported. Albania / South-Eastern Europe / Balkans / Flora / Bryophytes / Mosses / Liverworts / Hornworts / Check-list INTRODUCTION Albania represents one of the less known areas of Europe in relation to its bryophyte flora (see, for instance Stewart, 1995; Söderström et al., 1998; Sabovljevi† et al., 2001; Söderström et al., 2002; as well as Bego & Koni, 1999). No check-list has ever been prepared for this group of plants, perhaps also because of a lack of local bryologists. In his studies on European bryophytes, * Correspondence and reprints: colacino@unibas.it 08_Colacino.fm Page 2 Mercredi, 6. septembre 2006 4:11 16 2 C. Colacino and M. Sabovljevi† Düll (1983, 1984, 1985, 1992) lists 3 hornworts, 63 liverworts and 109 moss species in the Albanian flora. Söderström et al. (2002) list 3 hornworts and 89 liverwort species for Albania. A much higher bryophyte diversity is likely to be present in Albania. All bryological studies have been carried out by foreign scientists or collectors, often as part of studies covering a wider area, especially for the older records, in a period when Albania was still an integral part of the Ottoman Empire, the so called Turkey in Europe. These older works covered mainly the border area between Albania and Montenegro or Serbia (Kosova/ Kosovo). This check-list has been prepared because one us (Senior Author) has collected extensively during recent years in Albania, the need of a check-list including all previous records from the literature became apparent. It is hoped this work will fill the gap and stimulate further bryological investigations in Albania. It should be emphasized that this is not a specimen based list, distribution is based solely upon the literature references. MATERIALS AND METHODS The check-list (Table 1, which includes also the excluded taxa, and notes) is supplemented by a systematic synopsis of genera (Table 2), and synonyms (Table 3). The following symbols are used: 1 = report based on collections made before 1950. 3 = report based on collections made after 1950. For synonyms and accepted names we have referred to Corley et al., 1981; Corley et Crundwell, 1991; Cortini Pedrotti, 2001a, 2001b, 2006; Dierßen, 2001; Düll, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1992; Grolle & Long, 2000; Podp{ra, 1954; Schumacker & Vá≈a, 2005; Smith, 2004; Zander, 1993 (for Pottiaceae), and consulted the on line data base TROPICOS [http://mobot.mobot.org/W3T/ Search/most.html] of the Missouri Botanical Garden, which is based on the information contained in Index Muscorum (Wijk, Margadant & Florschuetz, 1959, 1962, 1964, 1967, 1969), Index Muscorum supplementa (Bauer & Crosby 1986; Crosby 1977, 1979; Crosby & Bauer 1981, 1983, 1987), in the various editions of Index of Mosses (Crosby et al., 1992; Crosby & Magill, 1994, 1997, 2000, 2004, 2005), and is continually updated. In the maps (Figs 1, 2 & 3) are shown, respectively, the names of the administrative division of the country (Prefectures), the number of taxa of liverworts and hornworts, and the number of taxa of mosses, in parenthesis is indicated the number of collections (records). The lower administrative subdivisions (not represented) are: Rreth (District), and Komunë/Bashki (Commune/Municipality). For most collections an attempt has been made to determine their localization at the lower administrative level, sometime even more precisely. These data are not presented here, though. For each taxon we state the distribution in Albania, the number of accepted records (collections), literature references, and excluded records (localities outside Albanian present-day political borders).

Not indicated for Albania in a more recent work, but Albania indicated on distribution map therein (Bischler 2004) According to Söderström & al. (2002) it should be referred to Marchantia paleacea ssp. ruderalis Bisch. & Boisselier. In the original work (Bischler & al. 1980) Plagiochila asplenioides (with the indication "incl. var.") was indicated as the species collected, in a more recent work Plagiochila porelloides instead is indicated as the one collected, while P. asplenoides is reported as present in Albania but not collected (Bischler 2004). (15) The locality indicated (West coast of Lake Scutari) was within the borders of Albania from 1885 to 1891, presently is in Montenegro. (16) Reported by M. Shehu in an unpublished thesis (Söderström, pers. comm. ); probably from the Ersekë area (Korçë), no voucher, thesis at Tirana University (A.Miho, pers. comm. ) (17) Reported by Jovet-Ast 1986 for Albania (with a question mark); Not confirmed by Bischler 2004. Reported as doubtful for Albania by Söderström & al. (2002) based on Jovet-Ast's paper. C. Colacino and M. Sabovljevi† (5) Bischler does not distinguish between varieties of this species in the original work (Bischler & al. 1980), in a more recent one, though, she does differentiate a var. sorocarpa (which she indicates she did collect) and a var. hegii Schiffn., which she only reports as recorded from Albania (Bischler 2004). (6) Hypnum sommerfeltii Myr., the species reported by Höhnel, is the basionym of Campylophyllum sommerfeltii (Myrin) Hedenäs, a subarctic species. According to Smith (2004), Cortini (2006), Düll (1995), though, European authors using that combination may have been rather referring to Campylophyllum calcareum (Crundw. & Nyholm) Hedenäs. There's a report of C. calcareum for Albania by Düll (1985), but with no indication of locality. (7) Variety with doubtful taxonomic value (Düll 1992). (8) In Cortini Pedrotti (2001a): Plagiothecium silesiacum (P.Beauv.) Bryol. eur. = Haplohymenium triste (Ces.) Kindb. (Probably a mistake). (9) In TROPICOS Philonotis calcarea and Ph. seriata are considered as synonyms of Ph. fontana. (10) Höhnel (1893) refers also to a var. luteomarginata Höhn. which he mentions he had collected also in Corsica in 1889. (11) No voucher or reference to locality is available. (12) Possibly in Albania (Düll, pers. comm.) (13) Likely to be present in Albania (Düll, pers. comm.) (14) Düll (1984) and Podp.ra (1954) report it for Albania based on a collection made by G,owacki in 1886 (in Beck and Szyszy,owicz, 1888): the locality is actually in Montenegro. 08_Colacino.fm Page 14 Mercredi, 6. septembre 2006 4:11 16 14 Notes to table 1: 08_Colacino.fm Page 15 Mercredi, 6. septembre 2006 4:11 16 Bryoflora of Albania: A Preliminary Check-List 15 Table 2.

The fluctuation of borders in earlier times is one of the reasons for the exclusion of several records which are outside the present-day borders of Albania (which have not changed since 1921, however). Many records from Szepesfalvy (1926), in particular those which are based on the collections made by Andrasowsky in 1916-17, had to be excluded, as what he called Northern Albania referred actually to areas in Montenegro or Kosova. Some works which included in their title Albania (or, more generally, the Balkans) have been consulted also, but in several cases there were no records of bryophytes for Albania in them. These have been reported too. For three taxa the only record of their presence in Albania is by Düll (1984, 1985). There is no original source, and no locality, and therefore, these have not been included in the list (see also Düll’s notes, later). The most recent paper on the liverworts of Albania is that of Bischler et al. (1980), which reports about 59 taxa, some of them indicated as new to Albania, although they had already been collected at the turn of the 19th Century and reported in works (Baumgartner, 1915; Höhnel, 1893, 1894) apparently overlooked by Bischler et al. (1980). The determination of the actual localities from the spellings used by the original authors has presented several problems, not least the lack of an official Albanian alphabet, used by all speakers of Albanian, which was agreed upon only in 1915, but entered into general use much later. The existence of two main varieties of Albanian (Gheg and Tosk, the last one becoming the “standard form” only after 1945) sometimes added to these difficulties. Therefore, many localities in the works consulted were indicated with their Turkish language equivalents (e.g., Ipek instead of the currently used Pejë/Pe† [Albanian/Serbian, respectively; a town in Kosova]), or with spellings based on German or Slavic languages (Serbian mainly). The use of maps and of gazetteers (for Albania and the 08_Colacino.fm Page 22 Mercredi, 6. septembre 2006 4:11 16 22 C. Colacino and M. Sabovljevi† Fig. 1.

The use of a series of topographic maps of Albania at the scale 1:50,000 published by the Russian Army between 1974 and 1988 also has been useful, even though the spellings of Albanian names are reported there in their phonetic rendering in the cyrillic script (Electronic Access from UC Berkeley Library [http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/EART/albania/albania50k.html]). A data base of the bryoflora of Albania, based at the Laboratory of Bryology (Dipartimento di Biologia, Difesa e Biotecnologie Agroforestali) of the University of Basilicata, has been prepared, and it would be appreciated if all new records (and related publications) would be communicated to the corresponding author to keep the data base up to date. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A Check-list of the Bryophytes of Albania is given in Table 1. We report here 327 taxa (species, subspecies, varieties and in a few instances, forms), which almost doubles the number of records for Albania as indicated by Düll (1983, 1984, 1985), which consisted of 175 entities. In particular, 238 mosses are reported (109 in Düll, 1984, 1985, 1992, including the 4 excluded herein), 86 liverworts, and 3 hornworts (63 + 3 in Düll, 1983). The taxa indicated by Söderström et al. (2002), with the exclusion of three of them, are the same we report here. The check-list is based on a total of 1207 records (including 44 records from localities reported in the works considered as in Albania, but actually outside present-day Albanian borders, and which have been indicated in Table 1 under “Records excluded”). All records, without a valid location in Albania, have been excluded. The actual number of bryophytes species in Albania is very likely much higher than that reported here (Bego & Koni, 1999, estimate it at about 500 species, a number probably not far from reality). This is suggested by the number of taxa in neighboring countries (see e.g., Düll, 1995; Sabovljevi† et al., 2001; Blockeel et al., 2002; Pavleti†, 1968, Sabovljevi†, 2004) as well as the floristic and geographic diversity of the country itself, an important meeting area between the Mediterranean, the central European, and the Pontic floristic elements (for more information on these characteristics refer also to Colacino (2004) and the references indicated therein). Excluded bryophyte taxa Nineteen taxa, excluded from the Albanian Flora, are reported at the end of Table 1. Campylophyllum calcareum (Crundw. & Nyholm) Hedenäs, Didymodon cordatus Jur., Didymodon vinealis var. flaccida (Bruch & Schimp.) Zander, and Hypnum cupressiforme var. lacunosum Brid., reported in Düll (1983, 1985), have no indication of any voucher or locality and have therefore been excluded (see also the notes by Düll at the end of Table 1).

Schimp., and Tortula mucronifolia Schwägr., reported for Albania, are actually from localities in Kosova. The records of Pogonatum aloides var. x minimum (Crome) Molendo, Tortula lingulata subsp. montenegrina (Breidl. & Szysz.) Podp., Weissia controversa var. crispata (Nees & Hornsch.) Nyh., and Leiocolea heterocolpos (Thed. ex Hartm.) H.Buch., also reported for Albania, are actually from localities in Montenegro. Three taxa reported for Albania by Söderström et al. (2002) have also been excluded: Porella obtusata (Taylor) Trevis, Riccia lamellosa Raddi, both without indication of any voucher or locality, and Leiocolea heterocolpos (Thed. ex Hartm.) H.Buch, whose report is based on the same record by Szepesfalvy (1926), which refers to a locality in Montenegro. For more details refer to the notes at the end of Table 1. Excluded Works The following works refer in their title to the Balkan area, or to Albania, in none of them, however, records of bryophytes for Albania are to be found. In particular, Ade & Koppe (1955) report species from Macedonia, Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, and southern Italy, near Naples, while none is reported from Albania. Baumgartner (1914a, 1914b) reports several bryophytes from the Island of Corfu (Greece), while his collections from localities on the adjacent coast of Albania do not include any bryophytes. Vilhelm (1923) reports species from northern Montenegro only. Weiss (1866) reports only Vascular Plants from Albania. Düll (1996), eventually, cites a work by Unger (1862) for Albania. We have not been able to locate it; its title, however, seems to refer to areas south of Albania. Systematic synopsis of Albanian bryophytes (Table 2) Arrangement follows Crandall-Stotler & Stotler (2000) for liverworts. Given the state of flux of hornworts taxonomy (Renzaglia & Vaughn, 2000), and considered there are only two genera of this group in our check-list, we follow the traditional arrangement of Grolle & Long (2000). For mosses the arrangement is according to Buck and Goffinet (2000), with the exception of Pottiaceae arranged according to Zander (1993). We differ from Grolle & Long (2000) in considering the bryophytes made up by three independent lineages (Divisions): Bryophyta (Mosses), Marchantiophyta (Liverworts), and Anthocerotophyta (Hornworts). We report for Albania 141 genera and 62 families of bryophytes (s.l.). Synonyms (Table 3) This list of synonyms is based on those found in the original sources, with a few additions (e.g., recent synonymies). Errors in the original citations have been corrected, as far as possible. Discussion Albania is still a relatively unexplored area in Europe, not all areas within that country, however, are equally unknown from a bryological standpoint. Coastal areas, as well as those near Tirana and near Scutari (Shkodër), have been more 08_Colacino.fm Page 27 Mercredi, 6. septembre 2006 4:11 16 Bryoflora of Albania: A Preliminary Check-List 27 frequently visited and collected. The less known areas appears to be the Northern Alps, the areas near the border with Kosova, and the internal areas of Berat and Elbasan. Even for those areas with the highest numbers of mosses and liverworts (and hornworts), as indicated in figures 2 and 3, these have been usually collected along the roads and near the major inhabited areas (with a few notable exceptions). A description of the characteristics of the bryophyte flora of Albania (as attempted in Colacino, 2004) is, therefore, probably still premature, even though it appears there is a prevalence of moss taxa with a central European distribution, followed by boreal and sub-boreal ones (Colacino, 2004). This is confirmed also by the results of Bischler et al. (1980) who found, for liverworts, a high number of central European taxa also (even though they did collect mainly in coastal areas). This is in opposition to the characteristics of the vascular flora which is made up prevalently by Mediterranean (and Balkan) elements (see, for instance Bego & Koni, 1999; Vangjeli et al., 1995). As reported by Stewart (1995), it is likely that the northern mountains have a bryophyte flora typical of Balkan mountains, with possibly rare species and arctic-alpine relicts. Interesting (and bryologically almost unexplored) areas on the Adriatic Coast (including the sand dunes and lagoon of the National Park of Divjaka) are under severe pressure because of human exploitation, and it is not known for how long (and if) they will be effectively protected (see also Leone et al., 2003, for recent data on Divjaka Lagoon). According to Stewart (1995), there are nine bryophyte species of particular conservation interest in Albania: the only locally endemic species, the rare (R) liverwort Frullania illyrica Grolle, is now included in F. inflata Gottsche, with a wider distribution, and whose status is Vulnerable (V) according to Schumacker & Vá≈a (2005). There are four other liverworts, Athalamia spathysii (Lindenb.) S. Hatt., Mannia triandra (Scop.) Grolle, Riccia trabutiana Steph., all with the status of rare according to the European Red List, and the insufficiently known (K) Marchantia palacea Bertol. (but not threatened – NT, according to Schumacker & Vá≈a, 2005). Out of the four mosses cited therein, Tortula lingulata Lindb. (K) is known from a single locality which we found to be outside the present borders of the country (actually we report Tortula lingulata subsp. montenegrina (Breidl. & Szysz.) Podp., which is considered by some authors (e.g. Düll, 1984) as synonym of Tortula lingulata Lindb.). The other mosses are Neckera cephalonica Jur. & Unger. (K), Buxbaumia viridis (Moug. ex Lam. & DC.) Moug. & Nestl. (V), and Tortula solmsii (Schimp.) Limpr. (R), the latter collected in Albania only once, more than a century ago (Höhnel, 1893). There are no data available on bryophyte conservation at the national level, the Red Data Book for Albania (Vangjeli et al., 1995) did not include bryophytes. Acknowledgements.
