Bryophytes in India
LIST OF FAMILIES AND GENERA OF BRYOPHYTES IN INDIA
Bryophytes, the amphibians of the ‘Plant Kingdom’, and the second largest group of green plants next only to the angiosperms constitute a fascinating component of biodiversity and are widely spread in almost all climatic conditions. They collectively represent three different groups (phyla), viz., Bryophyta (mosses), Marchantiophyta (liverworts) and the Anthocerotophyta (hornworts). In India, the bryophytes are represented by 2562 taxa (1636 mosses, 887 liverworts and 39 hornworts). They usually inhabit narrow ecological niches with preference for damp and shady conditions. In Himalayas, Northeast and Peninsular India and in Andaman & Nicobar Islands the bryophytes are rich in diversity and well represented due to prevailing of high rainfall and humidity. Two genera and 168 species of liverworts, 19 species of hornworts and 547 species of mosses are endemic to India. The bryophytes provide vital ecosystem services like soil formation, habitat modification and nutrient cycling and are useful in pollution detection and monitoring. The flavonoids and terpenoids contained in majority of them show various biological activities with considerable potential of chemical and pharmaceutical properties.
