Mosses of the North of Russia
It is demonstrated that mossflora of the Arctic is not separated from those of the Subarctic. Russian Subarctic has many characteristic species and 5 endemics. According to the moss species composition the Subarctic breaks into European and Asian parts; according to the families ratio - into arid and humid. All specificity of the Subarctic is due to its continental regions. We offer to divide the Subarctic in mainly continental Eusubarctic and mainly suboceanic Metasubarctic.
