Abstract

Revision of moss collections from South Ossetia earlier known only from an unpublished thesis by I. I. Abramov and kept in the Herbarium of Komarov Botanical Institute (LE) resulted in confirmation of records of Amphidium mougeotii, Bryum algovicum, Crossidium squamiferum, Crossidium squamiferum var. pottioideum, Fissidens bryoides, F. gracilifolius, Homalia trichomanoides, Hygrohypnum luridum, Orthotrichum alpestre, O. cupulatum, O. vladikavkanum, Oxyrrhynchium schleicheri, Pterygoneurum ovatum, Schistidium flaccidum, Ulota crispa. Two species (Cinclidotus fontinaloides and Polytrichastrum sexangulare) were not found among the herbarium specimens. Identifications of Encalypta spathulata, Leucobryum glaucum and Pseudoleskeella catenulata are based on materials of other species. Cynodontium fallax, Encalypta pilifera and Leucobryum juniperoideum are recorded for the first time in South Ossetia.
