The present paper investigates the hypothesis that accumulation of metal ions from soils by terricolous mosses is important in ameliorating SO 2 toxicity. |
All phanerogams, vascular cryptogams, terricolous bryophytes and lichens shall be taken into account. |
The great majority of formicine genera, however, are both terricolous and cocoon-makers. |
It is recommended to include terricolous lichens. |
The Leucodontales comprise mainly epiphytic taxa, characterized by sympodial branching and reduced peristomes, whereas the Hypnales are primarily terricolous and monopodially branching. |
The opposite trend probably existed for terricolous bryophytes and macrolichens. |
