Bryophyte flora of two Natural Parks in Amapá: richness, composition and new records.

The aim of this study is to investigate the richness and composition of the bryophytes of two Municipal Natural Parks in Amapá, eastern Amazon. Bryophytes were collected in the Arivaldo Gomes Barreto Municipal Natural Park (AGBMNP), Macapá municipality, and Cancão Municipal Natural Park (CMNP), Serra do Navio municipality, in October 2010 and October 2012, respectively. Ten plots of 10 x 10 m were established in each park for sampling, and, in addition, random collections were made, in order to maximize the knowledge on the local bryophyte flora.
