Description
Summary:In this study, the moss flora of İğneada Floodplain Forest National Park (Kırklareli-Demirköy) in Turkey were investigated between the years 2015-2016. As a result of examination of six hundred thirty moss samples, which collected from İğneada Floodplain Forest National Park, were examined 24 families, 55 genera, 102 taxa species or subspecies. In terms of taxa number, the richest six families are; Pottiaceae (20), Brachytheciaceae (14), Polytrichaceae (9), Orthotrichaceae (8), Hypnaceae (6), Bryaceae (6). Atrichum crispum (James) Sull., and Bryum gemmiferum (R. Wilczek & Demaret.) (in press), marked with a black diamond (♦) sign are new records for the Turkish bryophyte flora. According to Henderson (1961) grid square system, 17 moss taxa marked with an asterisk (*) sing are new records for A1 square. While acrocarpous taxa (70) represent 68 % of the whole flora, the ratio of pleurocarpous ones (32) is 32 %.
