Liquidambar orientalis forests which are very important for Turkey and the world continue to exist in its unique habitat. In the present study, epiphytic bryophyte flora of L. orientalis, naturally spreads in Turkey, was investigated between the years of 2016-2019. A total of 27 localities were visited and 433 envelope plant samples were taken. As a result of identifications, in total 49 bryophytes (48 moss, 1 liverwort) were determined. These taxa were taken from the base, trunk and branches of the trees and presented as a table format. And also, Orthotrichum philibertii and Zygodon catarinoi has been given as the second distributional locality for Turkey. We believe that this study will contribute to bryophyte flora of Turkey and preservation of Liquidambar orientalis forests.

Liquidambar orientalis Ormanlarının Epifitik Briyofit Florası

Öz

Türkiye ve dünya için çok önemli olan Liquidambar orientalis ormanları, kendine özgü yaşam alanlarında varlıklarını sürdürmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de doğal olarak yayılan L. orientalis'in epifitik briyofit florası 2016-2019 yılları arasında araştırılmıştır. Toplam 27 lokalite ziyaret edilmiş ve 433 zarf bitki örneği alınmıştır. Teşhislerin sonucunda, toplamda 49 karayosunu (48 yapraklı karayosunu, 1 ciğerotu) kayıt edilmiştir. Bu taksonlar ağaçların taban, gövde ve yan dallarından alınmış olup, tablo formatında sunulmuştur. Ayrıca, Orthotrichum philibertii ve Zygodon catarinoi Türkiye’den ikinci kayıt olarak tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın Türkiye karayosunları florasına ve Liquidambar orientalis ormanlarının korunmasına katkı sağlayacağı kanısındayız.
