Tsakiri, E., Papp, Beáta; Szurdoki, Erzsébet: New records on the bryophytes of Mt Voras, North Greece

Conservation information and threatening factors The reported species are not included in the Red Data Book of European Bryophytes (ECCB 1995), and according to the Greek Legal System the bryophytes in general are not included in any law concerning nature and flora protection. In the Greek Habitat Project "Natura 2000" (Dir. 92/43/EEC) one species is included (Buxbaumia viridis (Moug.) Moug. et Nestl.; DAFIS et al. 1996). But this does not represent the "real needs" for Greek bryophyte protection. Especially in the case of all Sphagnum areas in Greece, which are extremely vulnerable mainly due to their extremely small size and also the disturbing human activities, which pose a great threat on these sites and even there is a real danger of extinction. At Site 1, by the "ski centre Voras", the small alkaline fen is extremely threatened by human activities and the plans of expanding the ski centre to serve an increasing number of visitors experienced over the last years.
