Epiphytic mosses exhibited a decline, followed by a hump-shaped pattern of species richness with increasing elevation, while epiphytic liverworts showed a mid-elevation plateau with a richness maximum between 800 and 1300 m. Forest microclimate, topography and host plant composition attributes influence epiphytic moss and liverwort patterns differently and interact in a complex way. Overall, species richness of epiphytic liverworts was most strongly affected by microclimate (mean annual air temperature of growing season) and of epiphytic mosses richness by topography (slope). Further, epiphytic liverwort species richness was more influenced by temperature than moisture.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Main Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>This study highlights the importance of collecting climatic factors at a fine scale (microhabitats) for understanding the patterns and drivers of bryophyte diversity.
