Checklist of the bryophytes of India

Prem Lal Uniyal

The checklist reports total 2489 taxa of bryophytes recorded from India, comprising 1786 species in 355 genera of mosses, 675 species in 121 genera of liverworts and 25 species in six genera of hornworts. Some of the genera of mosses like Fissidens, Barbula, Campylopus, and Bryum are found to have largest number of species. In liverworts Riccia, Porella, Frullania, Lejeunea, Plagiochila and Jungermannia are recorded to be species rich genera and in hornworts Anthoceros is well represented by species. Pottiaceae, Lejeuniaceae and Notothyladaceae are largely represented in India. Nearly 340 species are endemic to India.

Bryophytes of India 1 Checklist of the bryophytes of India DIVYA DANDOTIYA, H. GOVINDAPYARI, SHANTANU SUMAN and PREM L. UNIYAL Department of Botany, University of Delhi- 110007 Abstract: The checklist reports total 2489 taxa of bryophytes recorded from India, comprising 1786 species in 355 genera of mosses, 675 species in 121 genera of liverworts and 25 species in six genera of hornworts. Some of the genera of mosses like Fissidens, Barbula, Campylopus, and Bryum are found to have largest number of species. In liverworts Riccia, Porella, Frullania, Lejeunea, Plagiochila and Jungermannia are recorded to be species rich genera and in hornworts Anthoceros is well represented by species. Pottiaceae, Lejeuniaceae and Notothyladaceae are largely represented in India. Nearly 340 species are endemic to India. INTRODUCTION India covers an area of 32, 87,263 sq km and represents an immense variety of climatic and altitudinal variations coupled with varied ecological habitats that contributed rich vegetational wealth and a unique kind biodiversity. India lies north of equator between latitudes 650 and 380, bounded by highest ranges of Himalayas in the north which represent the temperate and alpine zones; Himalaya is one of the important botanical regions of the world. The ecological habitats vary from humid tropical Western Ghats to hot deserts of Rajasthan and from ice-capped mountains of the Himalayas to warm coast of Peninsular India and moist Eastern Himalayas to moderate climatic zones of central India. India harbors Eastern Himalaya and Western Ghats as two hot spots. Bryophytes form a striking part of the vegetation in these hot spots. Bryophytes shares one of the richest groups of the plants in India and occupy a wide range of substrata. Bryophytes play an important role in nutrient cycling, soil formation, providing microhabitat for other plants and animals, promote seed germination and fill gaps in the habitat. In the recent years bryophytes have been widely used for pollution monitoring and bioremediation as well as in the molecular biology studies. Due to rapid urbanization and pressures inflicted by growth of human population and their intense activities the biodiversity is greatly influenced and bryophytes have been observed to be most affected. The conservation of bryophyte is very important in view of their critical role in ecosystem dynamics. They can be conserved by establishment of moss gardens and protected areas, sacred groves and in-vitro technique and also by regular monitoring, and periodic collection of data on rare and threatened species. The data include total of 340 species as endemic of which 269 species are of mosses, 67 are of liverworts and 4 are of hornworts. The data on the status of the taxa as rare, endangered, vulnerable and threatened is also provided along with the checklist. Out of 133 rare species 78 are of mosses and 53 are liverworts and nearly 14 species are recorded as endangered. ARCHIVE FOR BRYOLOGY 88 (2011) Dandotiya et al. 2 CHECKLIST OF BRYOPHYTES The checklist is divided into three divisions Mosses, Liverworts and Hornworts and taxon are arranged with family and order wise in alphabetical order. Where known the status and place name are provided. The list supports, approximately 72% of mosses, 27% of liverworts and 1% of hornworts.The classification is based on Goffinet et.al. (2009), Stotler et. al. (2009) and Renzaglia et. al. (2009), for mosses ,liverworts and hornworts respectively.Endemic species are well represented, of approximately 152 liverworts taxa endemic to India, 67 endemic species are mentioned, of 19 endemic hornworts 4 are mentioned and about 272 endemic species are known from India.
