| Abstract | ||||
| Ten moss species are reported for the first time from Bahariya Oasis (Western Desert of Egypt). Six of them belong to Bryum, two to Funaria and one each to Didymodon and Brachymenium. The number of mosses known from the Libyan and Nubian Oases territories is raised from 29 to 34. Notes on habitats, reproductive structures and fruiting are given. Floristic comparisons showed more taxa in common with northern African countries and Sinai than with the Nile land. | ||||
