The epiphytic bryophyte vegetation of the Kumbet Plateau (Dereli-Giresun) was investigated. A total 40 releves taken from tree trunks in different periods year 2019 were analysed using multivariate analysis methods such as detrended correspondence (DECORANA) and two-way indicator species (TWINSPAN), Braun-Blanquet method also applied. As a result, Frullanio tamarisci-Neckeretum pumilae Alata?, ...

Background: Anxiety is one the main problems of patients on waiting list for endoscopic procedures. Previous studies have indicated adverse effects of anxiety on these patients. Aim: to determine the effect of sound therapy on the anxiety and blood pressure of patients on waiting list for endoscopy. Methods: This was a randomized clinical trial, in which 124 patients on waiting list for endosco...

The Brazilian Atlantic Forest presents high levels of richness and endemism of several taxonomic groups. Within this forest, the Orchidaceae may be highlighted as the richest family of Angiosperms found there, and is highly threatened due to collection and habitat destruction. The inselbergs of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest are mostly unknown regarding their floristic composition, but the avail...

Rangeland management plan is one of the major means of management and utilization of rangelands in Iran. The formulation of these plans for the rangeland users should be studied from the ecological and socio-economic points of view. One of the main envisaged activities in almost all the management plans is the grazing system. An experiment was used to study the effects of three deferred grazing...

Boujagh National Park is the first founded land-marine national park in Iran and the first national park in Gilan Province, N. Iran. This area is a critical refuge for a lot of migratory birds and so many valuable coastal flora and fauna. The present study revealed that, the flora of this area comprises 248 vascular plants and 10 bryophytes out of which six taxa are endemic for the flora of Ira...

(2003) The relationship between the floristic composition of rain forests and the abundance of folivorous marsupials in northeast Queensland. Summary 1. Three species of folivorous ringtail possums (Marsupialia: Pseudocheiridae) inhabit higher elevation rain forests on the Atherton Tablelands, northeast Queensland, Australia. Each possum is thought to specialise on a restricted suite of host pl...

The exceptional botanical wealth of southern Africa has been known internationally since the early 17th century. However, it is only during the past 25 years that a succession of regional floristic checklists has been published, culminating in one for southern Africa (Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland, Lesotho, and South Africa) (Germishuizen & Meyer, 2003) and another enhanced with primary biologic...

Present paper enumerates highlights of seasonal variation in floristic composition and ecological strategies for the management of ‘Gujar Tal’ at Jaunpur in tropical semi-arid region of eastern U.P. (India). Total composition of macrophytes recorded was 47 from 26 families with maximum 6 plant species of Cyperaceae from April, 2012 to March, 2013 at certain periodic intervals. Maximum number of...

Digital libraries can be regarded as virtual spaces in which collaborative scholarly research can be conducted. Floristic digital libraries provide such collaboration spaces for scientists working on solutions for Earth’s biodiversity problems. However, group awareness and collaboration are not easily achieved in an increasingly distributed environment such as the virtual space in which digital...

This study evaluated changes in the structure for remnant Mixed Ombrophilous Forest recovering from logging, which ceased over 40 years ago. Regarding dynamics of floristic composition natural regeneration, 18 species remained (23.38% total) and 27 new entered (35.06% total). The greatest increases were observed Allophylus edulis, Myrsine umbellata, Miconia cinerascens. When analyzing regenerat...
