Antóceros e hepáticas do parque estadual da serra dos pireneus e arredores, município de Pirenópolis, Goiás, Brasil

Abstract

Parque Estadual da Serra dos Pireneus is located in Pirenópolis, Cocalzinho, and Corumbá de Goiás, in the state of Goiás. This work aimed to prepare a list of the liverworts and hornworts that occur in that park and verify their geographical distribution within Brazil. In this region, there are several vegetation types: cerrado sensu stricto, campo limpo (shrubfree grassland), campo sujo (grassland with scattered shrubs), semideciduous forest, gallery forest, and rocky outcrop formations. During this research, it was possible to find in this mountain range one species of Anthocerotophyta and 57 species of Marchantiophyta distributed in 29 genera and 14 families, among which the most representative ones are: Lejeuneaceae (19 sp.), Jubulaceae (8 sp.), Lepidoziaceae (7 sp.), and Plagiochilaceae (5 sp.). Among the plants collected, 38 species are new records for the state of Goiás. Therefore, Serra dos Pireneus is a region that presents high diversity of bryophytes and the knowledge about them is definitely going to contribute to the conservation and study of the bryoflora of the state.
