Main conclusions

- the state territory is very unevenly researched

- more than a half of chorological data dates in period before 1918 → historical knowledge about distribution of bryophytes in Croatia

- data mostly inappropriate for preparation of Red Book, nature protection, management plans…

- many species are very poorly documented with single (old) locality or even without published localities

- high rate of discovering of new species indicates poorly investigated territory

→ urgent need of systematic survey of bryophytes in Croatia

Thank you for your attention! Mooslob…Was hält uns im Geleise?Was rettet uns vom Eise?Vor dorrender VersteppungUnd Länderstaubverschleppung?Was wärmt und bringt den Regen?Was fesselt seinen Segen?Was spart und nähret Flüsse?Was sichert uns Genüsse?Die Kleinsten und der Große,der Golfstrom und die Moose!

Schimper, K. F. (1857): Mooslob, oder die schonsten Geschichten der Moose, alte und neue, in Versen für eine junge Dame zu einer eleganten Moossammlung
