These checklists will report the taxonomic composition of each group and will indicate the distribution of the component members within the State. It is hoped that the checklists will encourage interested persons to aid in the biological exploration of poorly known districts. Such participation by all concerned is essential to the preparation of adequate floras and faunas for New York State. This is the first of such checklists. It represents the first accounting of the mosses of the State since 1866. William N. Fenton Assistant Commissioner for State Museum and Science Service [5] CHECKLIST OF THE MOSSES OF NEW YORK STATE By Edwin H. Ketchledge Temporary Museum Expert New York State Museum and Science Service * INTRODUCTION This checklist of the mosses of New York State is a progress report summarizing present knowledge of the distribution of mosses within New York. It serves as a forerunner to a State Moss Flora and is presented now with the hope of stimulating latent bryological interest among fellow botanists and students of New York vegetation. The present study began in 1949 as a joint project of the author and the Botany Section of the State Museum. Through the agency of the Graduate Student Honorarium program established by the State Science Service, the author initiated a survey of the moss flora of the Adirondack region. Following two summers of fieldwork and after a systematic review of botanical literature, a preliminary list of mosses was prepared, reporting 320 species, excepting the genus Sphagnum, from northern New York. In 1951, the study was expanded to include the entire State. On continued field and herbarium research, likewise sponsored by the Honorarium program, it was revealed that slightly over 400 species of true mosses occur in New York. During the ensuing four years, approximately eight thousand specimens were examined and hundreds of stations added to the catalog of State mosses. The known moss flora of New York State consists of 3 orders, 45 families, 147 genera, 439 species and 61 varieties. This is a larger number of species than that reported thus far for any other political division in the United States. Within the State, mosses vary greatly in abundance and frequency. Many species exhibit wide ecological amplitude and are relatively common in all sections of the State : thus, Mnium cuspidatum and Ceratodon purpureas occur in all 26 districts. Numerous other species appear in New York solely as outliers of sub- tropical or arctic ranges. For example, Aulac omnium turgidum, a weedy species of arctic regions, is known in New York only from Mount Marcy and Pogonatum brachyphyllum, a subtropical Coastal * Assistant Professor of Forest Botany, State University of New York College of Forestry at Syracuse University. [7] 8 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM AND SCIENCE SERVICE Plain species, occurs only at Orient, Long Island. The majority of New York mosses, however, are boreal or Temperate Zone species and occur abundantly in the State ; their apparent absence from various districts reflects, for the most part, the lack of sufficient fieldwork in those sections of New York, rather than poverty of the moss flora itself. The distribution-districts used in the checklist are based on “square” degrees of latitude and longitude and are numbered consecutively be- ginning in the northwest corner of the State (see map, frontispiece). The following symbols indicate the presence of species and varieties in the districts : X specimens seen and examined L authentic literature reports M personal communications from monographers V district approximate ? specimen reported, but locality questioned One taxon,* typical Fontinalis antipyretica, is reported for New York by Welch (personal communication), but the exact locations of the stations are unknown. To date, the investigation reveals 4,035 district records for New York mosses, distributed among the districts as follows : District: 1 7 12 19 District : 2 5 8 23 District: 6 14 16 21 22 26 District : 3 9 24 District: 10 13 20 25 District: 4 11 15 17 18 From 1 to 50 species and varieties From 51 to 100 species and varieties From 101 to 150 species and varieties From 151 to 200 species and varieties From 201 to 250 species and varieties From 251 to 300 species and varieties In the checklist, families are, in general, arranged according to Brotherus in Die natiirlichen P flanzenfamilien, Ed. 2, 1924-25 ; within families, the genera, species and varieties appear alphabetically. Taxonomy of the Sphagnales follows Andrews in North American Flora, v. 15, pt. 1, 1913. For the most part, taxonomy of the Andreaeales and Bryales agrees with Moss Flora of North America, North of Mexico, Grout et al., 1928-40. Binomials differing from those of the floras are designated by an asterisk and may be found listed with the corresponding flora name at the end of the checklist proper. Wherever consistent with sound taxonomic practice, properly described varieties have been maintained throughout the checklist, with minor exceptions. Taxonomic validity of these entities will be more * A taxon is a taxonomic category of any rank. CHECKLIST OF THE MOSSES OF NEW YORK STATE 9 thoroughly reviewed in a forthcoming flora, now in preparation. For the time being, however, three new combinations must be proposed, albeit reluctantly, in order to incorporate three varieties in the checklist. The combinations are as follows : Eurhynchium pulchellum var. scabrisetum (Grout) comb. nov. Eurhynchium strigosum var. scabrisetum Grout, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club 25: 241. 1898. Hypnum lindbergii var. demissum (Schimp.) comb. nov. Hypnum arcuatum var. demissum Schimp., Syn. (Ed. 2) 758. 1876. Hypnum lindbergii var. elatum (Schimp.) comb. nov. Hypnum arcuatum var. elatum Schimp., loc. cit. Throughout the course of the investigation, the author received gratifying assistance and advice from a number of colleagues and fellow bryologists. Dr. William C. Steere, professor of botany and dean of the Graduate Division, Stanford University, aided the author in many determinations and was a constant source of personal and professional guidance. Dr. Howard A. Crum, curator of the Crypto- gamic Herbarium, National Museum of Canada, Ottawa, likewise served both as friend and professional counselor. Dr. A. LeRoy Andrews, dean of American bryologists and authority on Sphagnum, has kindly consented to the inclusion of his determinations of New York State specimens in the checklist; no other records are cited for this genus. Mr. Roy Latham, Orient, New York, made his personal collection available at this time, greatly augmenting knowledge of the moss flora of Long Island. The author also owes a debt of gratitude to Stanley Jay Smith, curator of botany of the New York State Museum and Science Service; without his unfailing support, assistance on field trips and help in the preparation of the checklist, this study would not now be ready. From time to time, the author has enlisted the aid of various specialists and monographers and wishes now to acknowledge their many kindnesses, including identifications, especially of A. LeRoy Andrews, professor emeritus of German, and honorary curator of the bryological collection in the Wiegand Herbarium of Cornell University, Ithaca ( Sphagnaceae , Bryaceae and Mniaceae ) ; Geneva Sayre, chairman of the Department of Biology, Russell Sage College, Troy ( Grimmiaceae , Aulacomniaceae and Timmiaceae ) ; Winona H. Welch, professor of botany, DePauw University, Greencastle, Indiana 10 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM AND SCIENCE SERVICE (Fontinalaceae) , and William T. Winne, professor of biology, Union College, Schenectady (aquatic mosses). The directors and staffs of several herbaria kindly placed materials and facilities at the author’s disposal during the study, for which he is deeply grateful; these include the New York Botanical Garden, the Buffalo Museum of Natural Science, Cornell University, State Uni- versity of New York College of Forestry at Syracuse University, Union College, University of Michigan and Stanford University. Acknowledgments would not be complete without a special note of thanks to the director and staff members of the New York State Museum and Science Service, especially E. C. Ogden, State botanist. They, from the beginning, encouraged the study and rendered both financial and logistic support. It is hoped that publication of this checklist will stimulate bryologists and other botanists and naturalists to collect mosses, particularly in those districts which have been poorly explored bryologically. Speci- mens, properly labeled with collection data (habitat, locality and date of collection) may be sent to the State Herbarium, New York State Museum and Science Service, Albany. The staff there will see that they are verified or identified by competent authorities. districts (See Map) 11 X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X XXX X X X X X X X X X o CM ON XX X X X XX XX XXX X X X X X X X X X X XXX XXX X X X X X X k> M k> K/1 ri A n n n X X X X X k> kv< k> k>< n n n n X X X X X X X X X X k> k> n ri ri n ON 00 U U U kX n n n rN U U U k> rN n n rS XX X X X k^ k> k> k> rN n rN n X X X X X X X k> k> r > rN rN r i X rn 2 J3 U £ Q U ' £ E 3 3 4-> 4-> a «3 g.s y* a E . 3 CD E fc > bo bo C 5 EC t . . a C > S u *p E £ CJ 3 w :s aj c >r* S-i 1 3 - T3 M3 OT p g j? :c £ | * 9 c “ Cl * b/3 -55 cl o JS ■§ 3 Js E districts (See Map) 12 VO r-i to (N CN ro cs CN CN CN o CM vO to 1/3 w ►J < z o < a a, 1/3 X!
