The present study reports the discovery of three bryophilous and six lichenicolous species of nectrioid Sordariomycetes in Hungary. The bryophilous species Bryocentria brongniartii was found to be growing on Frullania dilatata, B. metzgeriae on Radula complanata and Metzgeria furcata, while Nectria muscivora on Barbula unguiculata and Didymodon cor...
The relevance of forests in mitigating biodiversity loss and the negative effects of climate change on the biota is largely shaped by below-canopy microclimatic conditions, which are buffered, cooler and more humid compared to adjoining open habitats. Water-filled tree holes (dendrotelms, DTs) are special tree-related microhabitats that host semi-a...
Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) is an economically significant tree species, serving as a valuable resource for timber and ornamental wood products. It plays a crucial ecological role within forest communities and exhibits wide distribution across Central Europe. During October 2022 and March 2023, we encountered instances of declining hornbeam trees i...

moss genus Entosthodon (Funariaceae). It is one of the first bryoparasitic Pezizales where molecular data confirmed...
Forest management has a major impact on the understorey vegetation, with the intensity and type of the applied
silvicultural treatments driving variable vegetation responses. We compared understorey variables across
different experimental silvicultural treatments in a temperate oak-hornbeam forest in Central Hungary. Five
treatment types were used...
Vezdaea cobria, a lichenized fungus grows on living or moribund gametophyte of various bryophytes, but also on algal fi lms and soil. Because of its extremely minute size V. cobria is an infrequently collected and probably overlooked species, which has hitherto been published only from the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Germany, France, and Al...
The European biodiversity and forest strategies rely on forest sustainable management (SFM) to conserve forest biodiversity. However, current sustainability assessments hardly account for direct biodiversity indicators. We focused on forest multi-taxon biodiversity to: i) gather and map the existing information; ii) identify knowledge and research...
Two small populations of the continental xerophytic moss species Hilpertia velenovskyi were discovered in the Vértes Mts and Mezőföld region (near Csákberény and Lovasberény, respectively) growing on vertical loess cliffs. Both populations are rather small and are restricted just to a small surface of the cliffs, covering only a few square decimete...

A telepes májmohák közé tartozó, jellegzetes megjelenésű Sphaerocarpos nemzetségből Magyarországon korábban csupán a S. europaeus-nak volt egyetlen régi előfordulási adata. 2022 januárjában egy Somogy megyei lucernaföldről előkerült a genusz másik Európában elterjedt képviselője, a S. michelii Bellardi is. A közleményben bemutatjuk a S. michelii...
Forest management integrating nature conservation aspects into timber production focuses increasingly on small-scale interventions. However, the ecological consequences of gap cuttings remain ambiguous in oak-dominated forests. In the Pilis Gap Experiment, we analyze how combinations of different gap shapes (circular and elongated), and gap sizes (...
Pannonicum floristic province, including the Transdanubian Mountains
has several endemic plant species. Some of them, such as Seseli leucospermum,
Vincetoxicum pannonicum or Linum dolomiticum are well-known by many people.
The dolomite hills of the Transdanubian Mountains, however, are outstandingly
rich in endemic Sorbus species as well.
Because o...

Aim
Dead wood inhabiting bryophyte communities are formed by several important factors. Besides the amount, quality and continuity of the substrate, there are also external factors indirectly influencing their structure. One of the most important is local microclimate. This fact has been recognized by many previous authors, yet studies exploring th...
There is a paradigm shift in silviculture towards the not just economically but also ecologically sustainable continuous cover forestry (CCF) methods. Their aims are to provide timber, to maintain buffered microclimate and biodiversity, and to meet social requirements simultaneously. However, the concept and the details of these techniques has to d...
A stable below‐canopy microclimate of forests is essential for their biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Forest management necessarily modifies the buffering capacity of woodlands. However, the specific effects of different forestry treatments on site conditions, the temporal recovery after the harvests, and the reason for the contrasts betwe...
Ecological, economic, and social demands triggered a shift in the management of temperate deciduous forests from rotation forestry system towards more nature-based forest management techniques such as continuous cover forestry. However, there is insufficient knowledge on the regeneration success of different tree species especially oaks-within this...
