Ireland’s Brilliant Bryophytes with Dr Christina Campbell
With over 800 species found in Ireland, bryophytes (mosses, liverworts and hornworts) form a large component of Ireland’s biodiversity, but are oftentimes overlooked. As part of the Autumn Lecture Series at the National Botanic Gardens of Ireland, join us for a talk on this fascinating group of intricately beautiful plants to take a closer look at their diversity, learn about their ecological importance and hear why Ireland is so special for them. This talk will also highlight the work being undertaken at the National Botanic Gardens on the conservation of our rare and threatened bryophyte species.
