Sažetak
Ephemeral mosses and liverworts are common members of Mediterranean bryoflora. Long dry summer season is unfavourable for their yearlong survival ; therefore bryophytic communities in the Mediterranean rejuvenate from their spores or dried thali along with late autumn and winter rains. During the winter season 2015-2016 ephemeral bryophlora of Croatian littoral was studied in Northern (southern Istria) and Central Adriatic (island of Molat). Ephemerum stellatum H. Philib was found to be a new taxon for Croatian bryophlora, while locality of Ephemerum minutissimum Lindb. is the second known for state territory. For Fossombronia echinata Macvicar, known in Balkan only from Greece and Croatia, island of Molat is the third known locality. On the contrary, Fossombronia caespitiformis De Not. ex Rabenh. subsp. caespitiformis and Fossombronia caespitiformis De Not. ex Rabenh. subsp. multispira (Schiffn.) J.R. Bray & D.C. Cargill were found to be more frequent.Genus Riccia was represented with largest number of ephemeral species: R. michelii Raddi, R. nigrella DC., R. sorocarpa Bisch. and R. subbifurca Warnst. ex Croz. Fairly common species (based on historical data), Oxymitra incrassata (Brot.) Sérgio & Sim- Sim and Southbya nigrella (De Not.) Henriq. were, on the contrary, found very rarely. Croatian bryoflora is generally understudied, therefore future field surveys are of high-priority.
