Racomitrium lanuginosum (Hedw.) Brid. is a boreal, montane species (DULL 1984). In SE Europe it is known from Bulgaria, Greece, BosniaHerzegovina, Montenegro, Slovenia (NATCHEVA and GANEVA 2005, DULL 1995, DULL et al 1999, MARTINCIC 2003). Schistidium papillosum Culm, is a boreo-arctic, montane species (SMITH 2004). Apart from a doubtful record in Slovenia (MARTINCIC 2003), in SE Europe it is known from Romania (SABOVLJEVIC et al in press) and Bulgaria (Rila Mts) (BLOM 1996). Timmia havarica Hessl. is a subcontinental, dealpine element (DULL 1984). It is reported by MARTINCIC (2006) from Prokletije Mts (Serbia, Montenegro), but it is not clear, whether it was found on the territory of Serbia or Montenegro. It is known from many SE European countries such as Albania (COLACINO and SABOVLJEVIC 2006), Bulgaria (NATCHEVA and GANEVA 2005), Greece (DULL 1995), Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia, Macedonia, Slovenia (DULL et al 1999, MARTINCIC 2003). One species, Cynodontium tenellum (Schimp.) Limpr., collected on the Bulgarian side of Midzor peak is a new record for Bulgaria (NATCHEVA and GANEVA 2005). It is a boreal, montane species (DULL 1984). In SE Europe it is reported from Bosnia-Herzegovina (DULL et al 1999) and Slovenia (MARTINCIC 2003). It was reported by us (PAPP and ERZBERGER 2005) for the first time in Serbia from the Golija-Studenica Biosphere Reserve.
