Introduction to Mosses and Liverwort Recording - Online Course 

Thank you so much! This was an excellent talk and very informative. I find it quite difficult to find videos on mosses and lichens that don't just scratch the surface. I found your talk that dove deeper than the typical 10 min video enlightening. Due to Covid, many organizations such as yours are publishing their zoom workshops and lectures and I am incredibly grateful to be able to virtually attend and find these treasures on RU-vid. So hello from Canmore, Alberta, Canada!

I'm absolutely intriqued by mosses & company. they are so pretty in their lushness and some even when the are dried up. Their ability to endureis an often overlooked everyday wonder an fascinates me every time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Germany

Great presentation! I LOVE mosses AND THIS WAS VERY INFORMATIVE!!!

Thankyou, Very helpful and useful introduction Lucia.

Fabulous course Lucia! A lot of the species you have covered can also be found in the Celtic Rainforest of the Lake District making this was a lovely refresher.

Very helpful and useful introduction Lucia, thank you.

Excellent information, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!

Hello! Could you recommend a guide for Ontario Canada? I'm in Eastern Ontario

and finally! can you provide a link to a clip on all the common mosses and lichens one is likely to find in urban areas?

just one more Question: could you ask your moss loving friends if they know anything about moss as a habitat for hoverfly larva? i want to encourage more hoverflies into my garden and i am told they like hollows in trees and moist environments, so it made me wonder if they lay eggs in living moss as well as rotting vegetation?

I find the leafy liverworts are too invasive and since their leaf cover the surface area, it prevents other moss to grow and water does not penetrate as easy.

also, do the spores of british species appear at a specific time of year or can they fruit at any time, even in winter?

which moss would you suggest if i wanted to create a small area that would tolerate occasionally being walked on barefoot. it would have to be rich emerald green, and be either 1. soft and springy or 2. velvety smooth (and dense) like a bowling green. also, would i need to gather it all from the wild, or would it be possible to propagate some from spores; if so, how long would it take to form and completely cover an area?
