Abstract

In this study,
epiphytic bryophyte vegetation of Beldibi and Babadağ forests has been studied
in northwest Turkey (Zonguldak). A total of 55 sample plots were studied. Phytosociological
data, obtained from sampe plots, were classified according to the Barun
Balnquet method. And also sample plots were ordinated with Detrended
Correspondance Analysis (DCA) and classified with two-way indicator species
analysis (TWINSPAN). The results indicated that three bryosociological unit
were determined from the forests. These; Neckeretum crispae, Anomodonto
viticulosi-Leucodontetum sciuroidis and, Orthotricho straminei-Pterigynandretum filiformis. Amanog
them Neckeretum crispae was reported for the first
time from Turkey.
