Fissidens celticus, also known by its common name Welsh pocket-moss, is a species of moss in the family Fissidentaceae. It was discovered in 1958 in Pembrokeshire by A.H. Norkett and was first described as a new species by Jean Paton in 1965.[1]

Description

Fissidens celticus has shoots up to Шаблон:Convert tall and Шаблон:Convert wide.[2] Each shoot has many leaves, often 10 pairs or more, of equal size.[2] The nerve in each leaf runs all the way to the leaf tip and has a distinct bend about halfway along the leaf.[2] Male plants and capsules are not known,[3] and it is uncertain how the species disperses.[4]

Fissidens celticus can be distinguished from F. exilis by its longer shoots, its greater number of leaves and its lack of capsules.[2]

Habitat

Fissidens celticus grows on shaded soil banks near woodland streams, especially on bare, compact patches eroded by floodwater.[2] It has an altitude range of between Шаблон:Convert.[1]

Distribution

Fissidens celticus is generally believed to be widespread and common within suitable localities. It is apparently endemic to western Europe and there is no evidence of population decline.[5]

Within the United Kingdom

The species holotype was from Hustyn Wood, St Breock, Cornwall,[4] and it is common throughout the western parts of the United Kingdom.[1] In the United Kingdom, F. celticus often associates with Calypogeia arguta,[1] Diplophyllum albicans,[1] Dicranella heteromalla,[4] Dicranella rufescens,[1][6] Epipterygium tozeri,[1] F. bryoides,[1] Pellia epiphylla,[1] Pohlia lutescens,[1] and Pseudotaxiphyllum elegans.[1]

England

Fissidens celticus is most commonly found in South West England, but is also present in the south east and north west.[1]

There are records of F. celticus from Cornwall,[4] Devon,[7] Gloucestershire,[8] Kent,[9] and Sussex.[10] On the Isle of Wight, it is present in Parkhurst Forest,[11] and at Briddlesford Nature Reserve.[12] As of 2001, the only known record in Lancashire was on the River Lune Biological Heritage Site.[13]

Wales

The species can be found all across western Wales,[1][14] including on Anglesey.[15]

Scotland

Fissidens celticus is present in much of western Scotland.[1] The Tayvallich Juniper and Fen SSSI (near Tayvallich, Argyll and Bute) is noted for its oceanic bryophytes, including F. celticus.[16]

Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, the only known location for F. celticus is in Ness Wood ASSI in County Londonderry.[17]

Elsewhere

Fissidens celticus has been recorded in many other countries in Europe:

In 2019, it was first reported in Turkey (and therefore in Asia).[21] It was found in Bozyazı, Mersin Province, associating with Bartramia stricta, Bryum dichotomum, Didymodon tophaceus, Targionia hypophylla and Timmiella barbuloides.[21]
