Distribution of bryophytes in China
- China is located in eastern Asia, between 18°-55°N and 74°-138°E. The total land area of about 9,600,000 km is divided into 30 administrative areas. The climate varies from subtropic in the south to temperate in the north. The topography is complex. All of the conditions mentioned above cause the bryoflora to be complex. There are estimated to be about 2,000 species of Musci and 1,000 species of Anthocerotae and Hepaticae. The late Professor P.C. Chen considered that China could be divided into seven distributional areas, this view is supported by most Chinese bryologists today.
