Papp, Beáta, Lőkös, László, Rajczy, Miklós, Chatzinikolaki, E.; Damanakis, M.: Bryophytes and lichens of some phrygana and maquis stands of Crete (Greece)

phylous bryophytes (Gongylanthus ericetorum, Fossombronia angulosa, Grimmia laevigata) and lichens (Aspicilia spp., Caloplaca carphinea, Melanelia pulla, Porpidia spp., Xanthoparmelia tinctina). Phrygana In the phrygana stands (Milatos and Elunda at Lasithi region) a large number of drought tolerant acrocarpous mosses (e.g. Weissia, Didymodon, Tortella, Tortula spp.) can be found. The pleurocarpous mosses are lacking. In the stands of Lassithi the species number is low. Some xerotolerant thalloid liverworts (e.g. Plagiochasma rupestre, Mannia androgyna, Targionia lorbeeriana) play great role. DISCUSSION The European distribution patterns of the bryophyte species show, that in the phrygana stands (Milatos, Elunda) the proportion of the Mediterranean (med, med-suboc, med-oc) species is higher than in maquis (Fig. 2). The other difference, that the species of European temperate zone (temp) are also important elements in maquis.
