About

This is a project of one amateur bryologist from Austria. It is intended to serve as a device guiding me through my study of this subject, meaning the information on this site will grow with my knowledge. Currently, it is very bare bones and most sites serve as a placeholder and schematic of the site to build.

Organization is in three sections:

  • Bryophyte Compendium: Collection of information about Bryophytes, organized in subsections called chapters
  • Procedures & Literature: Collection of experimental procedures and protocolls as well as an bibliography.
  • Blog: My blog, serving as a kind of lab journal documenting the stuff I do with my specimens.
