Descrizione

This dataset provides data on the occurrence of 672 European bryophyte species in European countries or territories. All species which are considered threatened or near threatened according to the European Red List (Hodgetts et al. 2019) are included (553 species). Further, all species evaluated in the European Red List assessed as LC, DD, NE and EX, which at the same time are either endemic, near endemic or globally rare, are included (119 species). Therefore, the list contains not only all European bryophyte species that are threatened or near threatened, but also all species endemic or near endemic to Europe as well as all globally rare species occurring in Europe. For each of the 553 threatened or near threatened species, we provide a conservation a priority score which was calculated based the Red List status and the proportion of the European population of the global population or the global rarity of the species. For details on the prioritisation approach see Bisang et al. (2025).
