A growing interest in the study of the bryophytes has become evident in the last decade. This interest has been strongly stimulated by the many excursions which the “Bryologische Werkgroep” has held nearly all over the country. Moreover, the fact that bryophytes are dominant in some special habitats (tree trunks, Sphagneta) has induced quite a few biologists, interested in plantsociology, to study them intensively. This revival has led to many results in the investigation of our moss flora, particularly in the discovery of a number of new and rare species. An earlier publication (N.K.A. 57: 281, 1950) has already given a number of these and an additional number have been briefly dealt with in the periodical “Buxbaumia”.
