Abstract

A study of the bryophyte flora of the Guadiamar river basin (southwestern Spain) was carried out. Forty-one localities along this river and its main tributaries were sampled. A total of 123 taxa are mentioned, of which 93 are mosses, 27 liverworts and 3 hornworts. Scopelophila cataractae (Mitt.) Broth., which grows exclusively on soils rich in heavy metals, is the second record from the Iberian Peninsula.
