A contribution to the knowledge of the bryophyte flora of the mountains of North Pakistan (Autonomous Region of Gilgit-Baltistan)

摘要

This paper provides an annotated list of a collection of bryophytes found in the mountain area of North Pakistan. It is based on a total of 161 specimens (151 of mosses and 10 of liverworts), covering 76 species and 22 families. The plants were collected from selected sites over two field excursions in 1998 and 1999. The list represents about a fifth of the known Pakistani bryoflora. Four species on the list are recorded as new for Pakistan, three of these were already published in previous papers.
