Sažetak
Croatia is bryologically one of the best-known regions of former Yugoslavia and even in Southeast Europe. As a part of the Austro–Hungarian Monarchy, the country was researched during 19th and early 20th century mostly by foreign bryologists. Afterwards, local researchers in 1950-ies and 1960-ies were mostly focused only on the bryophyte flora karst rivers. Therefore, bryology has been a neglected research field in the country for many years. Many species have only 100 year-old records ; hence, new studies on bryophytes are necessary. Since 2011, several bryological field trips were organised in co-operation between the Hungarian Natural History Museum and the University of Zagreb. Mainly national parks and other protected areas were investigated: Gorski Kotar Region, National Park Plitvička jezera, North Velebit, Papuk Mts, Žumberačka gora, and saline grasslands at Trpinja in Western Srijem. During these field trips more than 1700 specimens were collected. 35 species (6 liverworts and 29 mosses) were reported for the first time in Croatia. 34 populations of 14 bryophyte species were included in the Red data book of European bryophytes and populations of a further 12 species (2 liverworts and 10 mosses) of European conservation interest being on the candidate list of the new Red data book of European bryophytes were found. Besides these, several populations of species rare on the Balkans, especially mosses of wetlands, atlantic-subatlantic species, and boreal leafy hepatics, were also discovered. An overview of the species important from a conservation point of view in various habitat types will be provided.
