New bryophytes are finding their permanent homes at TENN! Careful filing matters. In a collection this large, a specimen placed in the wrong folder could remain lost for years. Thanks to our techs for keeping the collection organized and accessible! #Herbariumlife #Bryophytes

These results highlight the different strategies mosses can use to withstand sudden environmental change, and the need to better understand the resilience of epiphytic communities to increasingly frequent extreme events.

If you are in south east England and interested in #bryophytes, do come along to our field meetings. We are in the process of putting the programme together: sussexbryophytes.wordpress.com/bbs-se-group/

This was where we went earlier in the year:
