Abstract

We have identified a total of 105 taxa: 81 lichens, 2 lichenicolous fungi and 22 bryophytes (19 mosses and 3 liverworts). All this diversity is distributed unevenly depending on the substrate and the localities prospected. According to the type of substrate, there are 41 epiphytes, 33 saxicolous and 29 terricolous. The locality of les Guixeres is the one with the highest specific richness with 57 taxa. We highlight the presence of two epiphytic lichens: Blastenia xerothermica Vondrák subsp. xerothermica and Lecanora sinuosa Van Herk & Aptroot, which represent new citations for the Iberian Peninsula.
