New records of Buxbaumia viridis (buxbaumiaceae, bryophyta) in the sudetes

Buxbaumia viridis is a rare, epixylous moss species with boreal range of occurrence. It prefers native, coniferous, spruce-fir forests. Historically the species was recorded several in the Sudetes, but now only two locations are known in this mountain range. In 2017 five unknown B. viridis populations were found in Góry Sowie Landscape Park in the vicinity of Bielawa, in the Bardzkie Mountains near Bardo Śląskie, and in the Sudety Wałbrzyskie Landscape Park on the eastern slope of Waligóra.
