Ecological-Cenotic Analysis of Liverworts in Forests of the Lapland Biosphere Reserve (Murmansk Region)
The inventory and ecological-cenotic analysis of the liverwort flora were performed in forest ecosystems of the Lapland Biosphere Reserve (Murmansk Region). Ninety-eight species - 66% of the Hepaticae flora of the reserve - were revealed. Using the cluster analysis, six combined partial liverwort floras were distinguished, their composition was considered. The smallest number of liverwort species (15) was found in pine forests on poor strongly drained soils; the richest in liverwort species (88) were the flood-plain spruce and birch-spruce forests.
