Çankırı Research Forest. After identified 129 mosses from the research area, 35 taxa belonging to 22 genera and
14 families were determined. The moss samples’ ecological prefers like substrate and humidity were arranged

and Brachytheciaceae families were determined to have the most taxa number in the research area. Taxa as
Grimmia ovalis, G. pulvinata, G. trichophylla, Tortella tortuosa, Syntrichia ruralis, Tortula muralis and
