An annotated list of hepatics
of the Upper
Puiva River basin (eastern slope of Subpolar
Urals) was compiled based on identification of ca. 450 specimens
collected by Elena Lapshina in 2015. It includes 104 species, two subspecies
and two varieties,
among which four species (Calycularia
laxa, Jungermannia atrovirens, J. polaris, and Scapania tundrae), two subspecies and one variety are
new for the
Urals and 23 species and one
variety are new for Khanty-Mansi
Autonomous District – Yugra. New localities
for the worldwide
rare hepatics (Biantheridion undulifolium,
Protolophozia elongata, Lophoziopsis pellucida, and Cephaloziella arctogena) and very rare the
in Urals Asterella lindenbergiana, Sauteria alpina, Odontoschisma macounii, and Cephaloziella varians are revealed. A worldwide
distribution of the treated species
and some morphological peculiarities are discussed. The described flora
is compared with the previously
studied neighboring flora of Mt.
Ner-Oika.
