Overview of the fossil bryophytes of the Cretaceous and Tertiary of Bohemian Massif
Veselá, Veronika ; Kvaček, Zlatko (advisor) ; Kvaček, Jiří (referee)
The bachelor thesis summarizes the findings about previously described and published findings of bryophytes from the period of Cretaceous and Tertiary on the territory of the Bohemian Massif. It contains a chapter with current knowledge of taxonomy and life strategies of bryophytes, used to approach the studied groups. Part of the thesis is dedicate to the brief characteristics of the geological settings of locations with known findings of fossil bryophyte. Those locations are situated mainly in the České středohoří Mountains, the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin and the Českobudějovická Basin. For example and comparison are involved also two locations from Outer Western Carpathian. There are only two liverwort species (Notothylacites filiformis and Riccia cf. fluitans) and a few mosses (Hypnum heppii, Muscites sp.) described so far. Because of partial preservation of most of the findings any detailed systematical attribution remains ambiquous. The thesis has purely review character and is supposed to become a basis for further research and study. Key words: Bryophyta, Czech Cretaceous and Tertiary, review
