Abstract

Bryophytes (non- vascular land plants) owing to their simple morphological, anatomical structures, worldwide in distribution, and forming an important component of forest ecosystem can be of immense importance in determining the prevailing edaphic conditions(hydrogen ion concentration) by their distribution patterns. Especially, mosses that are highly versatile due to their adaptability to different substrata can be used all the year round in the laboratory and in-situ to monitor the area in every season, suggesting their wider use as bio-indicators as compared to higher vascular plants which are comparatively difficult to handle.
