The moss flora of Europe and Macaronesia comprises 278 genera, 1292 species, 46 subspecies 118 varieties. Of the total 53 are confined to 21 thought be non-native. checklist was derived from those for various component countries regions. It is based on results published up end 2005. Subspecies varieties included; hybrids omitted. taxonomic hierarchy one by Goffinet & Buck in 2004. While it has been strongly influenced modern molecular methods, there still many remaining uncertainties, even...

The moss genus Tortula is revised for South America. A key, descriptions, illustrations, distribution data, and light scanning electron micrographs of the 11 species recognized are provided. new species, arequipensis, described from Peru. Twenty-six names lectotypified. Thirty eight excluded Tortula. Six combinations proposed: Syntrichia breviseta, buchtienii, napoana, polylepidis, pseudolatifolia, diaguita. Thirty-six newly synonymized. Previous records vahliana Chile correspond to...
<i>Background:</i> Polymerised allergenic extracts (allergoids) are commonly used in allergen immunotherapy. Clinical efficacy and safety of these have been demonstrated. Recently, sequences identified by mass spectrometry depigmented polymerised (Dpg-Pol) extracts. The objectives this study were to investigate the presence allergens Dpg-Pol house dust mite analyze immunological changes induced asthmatic patients enrolled a double-blind, placebo-controlled study....

Tourism has grown steadily in recent decades, becoming a strategic sector for the economy many countries. However, environmental impacts associated with tourism have also experienced an upward trend. In this sense, innovation is needed sector, to move towards new models and strategies that integrate sustainability social aspects of sector. study, holistic assessment impact been carried out using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method, considering all stages activity: transportation from place...
The tourism industry, affected by COVID-19, must reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This study evaluated the environmental impact of three hotels in coastal and mountainous regions Spain Portugal using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). Data was gathered via surveys Greentour tool. Results indicate that 2-star hotel (focused on cultural-urban tourism) has highest impacts most categories, except for CC, FRD, POF indicators. 3-star (beach contributes to CC FRD indicators, while hostel...
The ongoing morphological and molecular analyses of the genus Trichostomum in South America has allowed us to study some specimens from Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay that do not match with any Pottiaceae species presently recognized these countries. We originally identified them as Hyophila loxorhyncha, a neglected taxon known only type locality few others Brazilian localities. phylogenetic position this is inferred based on new by nuclear ITS sequences. This analysis resolves clade...
Travel and tourism are essential to global economies, generating social, economic, environmental impacts. However, there is a lack of standardized methodologies assess the footprint tourist destinations beyond carbon analysis. This study introduces Greentour tool, first its kind evaluate impact accommodation, restaurants, activities using nine indicators from life cycle assessment (LCA) perspective. The tool applies hybrid bottom-up top-down approach, integrating data establishments...
Molecular phylogenetic reconstructions support the monophyly of Pylaisiaceae. The family includes Calliergonella Loeske, Homomallium (Schimp.) Pseudohygrohypnum Kanda, Pylaisia Schimp., 2 further genera formerly placed in Hypnaceae, Ectropothecium Mitt. and Vesicularia (Müll.Hal.) Müll.Hal., as well several species Hypnum Hedw. recently considered to belong Stereodon (Brid.) Rchb. Calliergonella, Ectropothecium, Pylaisia, Vesicularia, are monophyletic based on present data, whereas is...
This study focusses on the molecular and morphological variation among Scandinavian species within Syntrichia ruralis complex (S. calcicola, S. norvegica, ruraliformis, ruralis) of moss family Pottiaceae, plus similar-looking princeps. Molecular was explored based internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1), plastid atpB-rbcL rpl16 G2 intron. The relationships taxa were evaluated by including twelve additional, morphologically defined in ingroup, subpapillosissima that here shown to occur...
Abstract New taxonomic data are presented from a revision of the Syntrichia caninervis complex. Seven taxa have been recognized, based on morphological characters about 180 samples. An identification key is presented. Lectotypes for handelii and Tortula bornmuelleri proposed. pseudodesertorum included as synonym S. var. caninervis. pseudohandelii reduced to rank variety pseudodesertorum. Two cited first time N. Africa, rigescens gypsophila, one Morocco, Communicating Editor: Jeff H. Rettig
Abstract Guerramontesia microdonta (Pottiaceae, Bryophyta) is a new genus and species from Argentina Bolivia. It distinct other genera of the Pottiaceae by combination characters: absence central strand in stem, Ungulate unbordered leaves with yellow KOH colour reaction, costa at midleaf one band dorsal stereids, (1)2–3 guide cell layers, hydroids, sporophyte peristome 16 variously cleft, occasionally perforate, coarsely papillose, short straight teeth. The described, illustrated mapped....
The Syntrichia ruralis complex is revised in the Mediterranean region and neighbouring areas. A critical study of six quantitative eight qualitative gametophytic characters from a total 232 samples has been carried out. On basis this survey five taxa have recognized. An identification key provided. S. var. subpapillosissima elevated to rank species as subpapillosissima. lectotype for calcicola proposed. submamillosa glacialis are regarded synonymous with ruralis, respectively. Also, Tortula...
A taxonomic study of Syntrichia laevipila and S. pagorum has been carried out. morphological description distribution data are provided. Three lectotypes for laevipila, Barbula var. meridionalis Tortula laevipilaeformis proposed. After studying the type material complex samples from numerous localities throughout world, we conclude that same taxon typical forms in which it is found simply extremes its wide range. In this way, different varieties described really transitional states between...
Aloina catillum is a variable moss typical of xerophytic environments in the Neotropics, characterized against other closely allied species with well-differentiated leaf border by its setae twisted to left throughout. In order clarify variability and relationships differentiated A. brevirostris, obliquifolia, rigida, we performed an integrative study including sequence data from four markers (nuclear ITS, plastid atpB-rbcL, trnG, trnL-F), morphometry, assembling automatic partitioning (ASAP)...
A new moss species, Didymodon lainzii J. A. Jiménez & M. Cano, is described and illustrated from south-western Ecuador north-western Peru. It characterized mainly by its linear-lanceolate to oblong-triangular incurved leaves when dry, plane bistratose margins above midleaf, the yellowish color in KOH, a hyaline area of rectangular cells on ventral surface costa, transverse section costa with 2–4 layers guide without stereids. Its distinction from, relationships with, some closely related...
Abstract Based on morphological and molecular evidence, a new combination, Syntrichia kingii, is proposed for Tortula an Andean taxon previously treated as conspecific with S. percarnosa. nigra also synonymized kingii. Maximum parsimony Bayesian analyses of chloroplast DNA sequences (trnL-trnF trnG regions) were undertaken to assess the affinities between these cucullate-leaved species. kingii described, illustrated, its distribution mapped. The known range this species extended in...
