An unrecorded Fissidens species, Fissidens protonemaecola Sakurai (Fissidentaceae, Bryophyta), was newly discovered in Korea during an investigation bryophyte flora. In this study, we examined the morphology of F. protonemaecola in Korea. This species was found in soil along a train through a shaded backslope of Mt. Bukbyeongsan (elev. 80 m) on Geojedo Island and on Mt. Gogeunsan (Oreum; elev. 280 m) on Jejudo Island, Korea. This species has dwarfish bud-like shoots scattered on persistent protonemata. An important feature of the protonemata is a diagnostic character of F. protonemaecola that clearly distinguishes it from other Fissidens species. Its Korean name is given as "Cho-rok-sil-bong-hwang-i-kki," inferred from the characteristic protonemata of the species.

Background: This study focused on the diet of Clithon retropictum, level II endangered species in Korea. Since the development of brackish water zones has led to a decline in the population of this species, to obtain information on the ecology of C. retropictum required for its conservation and restoration. To investigate the actual preys of C. retropictum in south coast of Korea, we conducted high-throughput sequencing and metabarcoding techniques to extract DNA from gut contents and periphyton in their habitats. Results: Total 118 taxonomic groups were detected from periphyton samples. 116 were Chromista and Cyanobacteria dominated in the most samples. In gut contents samples, 98 taxonomic groups were detected. Similar to the results of periphyton, 96 were Chromista and Cyanobacteria dominated in the most samples. In the principal component analysis based on the presence/absence of taxonomic groups, gut content composition showed more clustered patterns corresponding to their habitats. Bryophyta was the most crucial taxonomic group explaining the difference between periphyton and gut contents compositions of C. retropictum. Conclusions: Our finding suggests that C. retropictum may not randomly consume epilithic algae but instead, likely to supplement their diet with Bryophyta.

This study was carried out to investigate the moss flora of Barton Peninsula on King George Island of Antarctica. The study presented here was based on field surveys of Barton Peninsula conducted by the author during the austral summer season in 2012/2013, 2013/2014, 2014/2015 and herbarium specimens from Hiroshima University. The result of the study showed that the moss flora Barton Peninsula consisted of a total of 35 species, with 11 families and 21 genera.

This study presents a survey of the bryophytes of evergreen broad-leaved forest near Baekyaki Oreum in Gujwa-Seongsan Gotjawal in the eastern part of Jejudo Island, Korea. A total of 53 taxa belonging to Bryophyta (11 families 26 genera 39 species) and Marchantiophyta (9 families, 9 genera 14 species) were determined, and the liverwort index was found to be 26.4%. The predominant life-form was the mat type. The rates of bryophytes dominating at mesic to hygric sites were higher than those of bryophytes, which were mainly observed in xeric habitats. These values indicate that the forest areas in this study area have a high density level. Upon an investigation of the substrates, bryophytes on rocks were most diverse. It was also found that volcanic rock masses of various sizes lay scattered over the study area and offer numerous micro-habitats for bryophytes. This is related to the characteristics of Gotjawal. We consider that more detailed studies should be conducted on regional scales to establish the bryophyte flora of Gotjawal and the evergreen broad-leaved forests of Jejudo Island.

This study presents a survey of bryophytes in a subtropical forest of Nabeup-ri, known as Geumsan Park, located at Aewol Gotjawal in the northwestern part of Jejudo Island, Korea. A total of 63 taxa belonging to Bryophyta (22 families 37 genera 44 species), Marchantiophyta (7 families 11 genera 18 species), and Anthocerotophyta (1 family 1 genus 1 species) were determined, and the liverwort index was 30.2%. The predominant life form was the mat form. The rates of bryophytes dominating in mesic to hygric sites were higher than the bryophytes mainly observed in xeric habitats. These values indicate that such forests are widespread in this study area. Moreover, the rock was the substrate type, which plays a major role in providing micro-habitats for bryophytes. We suggest that more detailed studies of the bryophyte flora should be conducted on a regional scale to provide basic data for selecting indicator species of Gotjawal and evergreen broad-leaved forests on Jejudo Island.

Recently, it has become known that Gotjawal terrain is an important area, therefore the study on this area has conducted in the geological, ecological, and cultural aspects. The studies on bryophytes of Gotjawal, however, have not been sufficiently performed. This study presents a survey on the bryophytes of the evergreen broad-leaved forest of Cheongsu-ri at Hangyeong Gotjawal in the southwestern part of Jejudo Island, Korea. A total of 72 taxa belonging to the Bryophyta (18 families 43 genera 55 species) and Marchantiophyta (11 families 13 genera 17 species) were determined and the liverwort index was 23.6%. Predominant life-form was weft. The rates of the bryophytes dominating in mesic to hygric sites were higher than the bryophytes mainly observed in xeric habitats. These values indicate that the forests are widespread and dense in this study area. Upon an investigation of the substrates, the bryophytes on rocks were most diverse. The results appear to stem from the fact that volcanic rock masses of various sizes lay scattered over the study area, offering numerous micro-habitats for bryophyte due to one of the characteristics of Gotjawal. We suggest that more detailed studies should be conducted at the regional scale to establish the bryophyte flora of Gotjawal and the evergreen broad-leaved forests on Jejudo Island.

일광산 습지에 자생하는 식물은 2문 15과 27속 34종류로 조사되어 다른 지역의 습지보다 다소 적은 출현 종수를 보여 주었다. 과별 출현종수로 선태식물(Bryophyta)은 1속 1종(2.9%), 사초과 식물이 6속 10종(29.4%), 화본과 식물 6속 6종(17.6%), 통발과 및 난초과 식물이 각각 3속 3종(8.8%), 곡정초과식물 1속 2종(5.9%), 그리고 기타 식물(26.5%)로 조사되었다. 대표적 식물군락으로 습원의 조건과 빈영양을 반영하는 끈끈이주걱 군락, 이삭귀개 군락, 땅귀개 군락, 자주땅귀개 군락, 개수염 군락, 그리고 참바늘골 군락 등이 관찰되었다. 습지의 식생으로 물의 양이 많고 토양층이 얇은 습지의 아래쪽에는 개수염-산사초 군락-끈끈이주걱 군락이, 물의 양이적고 토양층이 깊은 습지의 위쪽에는 산겨이삭-달뿌리풀 군락이 발달하였다. 물이 고여 있는 곳에서는 끈끈이주걱이 잘 서식하지 못했으나 땅귀개류는 비교적 잘 서식하였다. 땅귀개나 자주땅귀개는 무리지어 군락을 이루어 나타났지만 이삭귀개는 개체수도 적고 분포지역도 좁게 나타났다. 한국산 특산식 물로는 개수염이 관찰되었고 CITES 관련 희귀식물로는 잠자리난이 조사되었다. 식충식물로는 끈끈이주걱, 이삭귀개, 땅귀개, 그리고 자주땅귀개가 조사되어 습지 보호가 필요한 지역임을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 제주도 한라산 북동사면의 선흘 곶자왈에 위치하고 있는 동백동산의 선태식물을 대상으로 하였다. 식물상 조사 결과, 선류는 22 과 44 속 62 종, 태류는 12 과 16 속 23 종으로 총 85 종이 확인되었다. 이 중 Diphyscium perminutum Takaki, Racomitrium japonicum Dozy & Molk., 그리고 Isopterygium minutirameum (M$\ddot{u}$. Hal.) A. Jaeger.는 한국미기록식물에 해당하여 본 연구를 통해 기재하였다. 태류지수는 27.0%이고, 직물형의 생활형에 해당하는 선태식물이 가장 많이 분포하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 중습성 또는 습성의 환경에 주로 생육하는 선태식물의 비율이 건조한 환경에서 주로 출현하는 선태식물의 비율보다 높았다. 본 연구를 통해 조사지 내의 상록활엽수림, 습지, 나지 등에 의한 다양한 환경 요인이 종의 조성과 분포에 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 그리고 이 지역에서 암석은 선태식물에 미소환경을 제공하는 데 있어 주요한 요인으로 작용하는 기질이었다. 특히, 동백동산의 소택지에 분포하는 선태식물은 면적에 비해 독특하고 다양하며, 관속식물과 함께 모자이크 공간 유형의 식물군락을 이루는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 제주고사리삼과 자생지의 보존과 복원을 위한 기초 자료를 제공할 수 있도록 한국 고유 양치식물인 제주고사리삼이 자생하는 소택지를 대상으로 한 보다 정밀하고 종합적인 조사를 제안하는 바이다.
