Moss Flora of Colombia

9626747丘吉尔国际与哥伦比亚同事的合作，该项目将为哥伦比亚的苔藓植物提供一个完整的植物处理方案。哥伦比亚苔藓植物区系包含68科、256属、889种，估计占全球苔藓多样性的10%，新热带苔藓多样性的30%-40%，热带安第斯山脉苔藓多样性的53%-60%。这项建议的重点是简明的物种描述，但也将描述较高的分类群(属和科)，以便使这项工作对委内瑞拉南部至秘鲁南部的工人以及哥伦比亚的工人有用。除目前项目的成果外，还将通过因特网提供一个数据库，其中包括15,000个哥伦比亚苔藓标本，以及《新格拉纳特斯苔藓》的英文和西班牙文文本以及哥伦比亚苔藓类型目录。物种描述和分布图将定期更新到互联网服务器上。该项目将对有关新热带苔藓的知识产生重大影响，新热带苔藓在维护和保护山地景观方面发挥着重要作用。

9626747 Churchill A collaborative effort between the PI and Colombian colleagues, this project will provide a complete floristic treatment of the mosses of Colombia. The Colombian moss flora contains 68 families, 256 genera and 889 species, and is estimated to represent 10% of the total worldwide diversity of mosses, 30-40% of the Neotropical moss diversity, and 53-60% of all mosses in the tropical Andes. The emphasis of this proposal is concise species descriptions, but higher taxa (genera and families) will also be described so as to make the work useful to workers in Venezuela south to southern Peru as well as those in Colombia. A database of 15,000 collections of Colombian mosses, as well as the text of the Prodromus Bryologiae Novo-Granatensis (in both English and Spanish) and a catalogue of Colombian moss types will be made available via the Internet in addition to the results of the current project. Species descriptions and distribution maps will be added to the Internet server in regular updates. This project will have significant impact on knowledge about neotropical mosses, which play an important role in maintaining and preserving montane landscapes.
