Abstract
The presented checklist and red list include 231 liverwort (Marchantiophyta) and two hornwort species (Anthocerotophyta). Overall, 22.9% of liverworts are evaluated as threatened (CR – 4.3%, EN – 7.8%, VU – 10.8%), while 17 of species (7.4%) are categorized as NT, 11.6% as DD and 3.0% as RE. A total of 128 species (55.4% of the liverwort flora of Slovakia) were assessed as LC. For the liverwort Lunularia cruciata the criteria were not applicable (NA), since this species is not native to Slovakia. Currently, only two hornworts are known in Slovakia, of which Anthoceros agrestis is assessed as LC and Phaeoceros carolinianus as NT. The main factors of the liverwort and hornwort endangerment and retreat are anthropogenic changes in natural conditions and degradation of the ecosystems caused by agriculture, forestry, aquaculture, climatic changes, industry, and traffic pollution.

Introduction
Up to date, three editions of the Checklist of liverworts and hornworts (Kubinská et al. 1993; Kubinská and Janovicová 1996, 1998) and two of their updated editions (Kubinská et al. 2001a, b) including the Red list of bryophytes evaluated according to the IUCN criteria (IUCN 2001) have been published in Slovakia. Since then, several species new to Slovakia have been recorded. The revised checklist and red list of hornworts (Anthocerotophyta) and liverworts (Marchantiophyta) follow the latest version of the Checklist of mosses (Bryophyta) (Mišíková et al. 2020). Based on current knowledge, occurrence and threat status of hornworts and liverworts are less processed compared to mosses. At present, data from most areas of Slovakia are absent or are only partially known with the exception of the Tatra Mountains, where distribution, chorology and the population numbers of some species are well documented (Šoltés 1990, 2002; Górski and Váňa 2014; Górski 2016, 2020). The aim of this work is to present the current state of endangerment and nomenclatural changes of liverworts and hornworts of Slovakia.
Methods
All hornwort and liverwort species that have been recorded in Slovakia up to the end of February 2020 were taken into consideration. The updated checklist and red list are based on previous lists (Kubinská et al. 2001a, b) and are treated according to recently published results. Nomenclature of taxa follows the European checklist of bryophytes (Hodgetts et al. 2020), except Lophocolea coadunata. As the dioicous species Lophocolea coadunata was not distinguished from the autoicous Lophocolea bidentata in Slovakia, we do not treat these species separately. Accepted names are cited in bold. Species varieties are listed by generally distinguished taxa.
Red list
The presented edition of the red list follows the IUCN Species Survival Commission Guidelines (2012) considering the guidelines for bryophytes (Hallingbäck 2006; Hodgetts et al. 2019). Recommendations provided by Bergamini et al. (2019) were used to define the concept of an adult individual. According to the IUCN (2012), the IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee (2019), Hodgetts et al. (2019) and Mišíková et al. (2020), eight categories were used.
-
1.
Regionally extinct (RE): A species is Regionally Extinct when it is extinct or not confirmed since 1970 within the region assessed (Slovakia), but populations can still be found in areas outside the region. A small chance remains that such species may still persist and be rediscovered.
-
2.
Critically endangered (CR): A species is Critically Endangered when it meets the criteria for this category, indicating that the species is facing an extremely high risk of extinction.
-
3.
Endangered (EN): A species is Endangered when it meets criteria for endangered with a very high risk of extinction in the region.
-
4.
Vulnerable (VU): A species is Vulnerable when it meets the criteria for this category, indicating that the species is facing a high risk of extinction in the region.
-
5.
Near threatened (NT): A species is Near Threatened when it does not meet the criteria for CR, EN or VU, but may likely become at risk of extinction in the near future.
-
6.
Least concern (LC): A taxon is considered to be of Least Concern if it does not qualify for CR, EN, VU or NT. Species classified as Least Concern are considered at low risk of extinction. Widespread and abundant species are typically classified in this category.
-
7.
Data deficient (DD): Includes taxa for which the lack of data does not allow an assesment of its risk of extinction. Listing of taxa in this category indicates that more information is required and acknowledges the possibility that future research will show that threatened classification is appropriate.
-
8.
Not applicable (NA): This category includes species occurring outside their natural range, which cannot be evaluated on the basis of the selected criteria.
Due to lack of appropriate information for species classification into threat categories, only IUCN criterion B (subcriteria B1 and B2), C (subcriteria C1 and C2) and criterion D (subcriterion D2) (Table 1) were taken into account in the evaluation process.

Annotations
1 Aneura maxima.
Only one record of this species is known from Slovakia by now (Loskotová 2006). It is highly probable it grows on several localities where it is not distinguished from Aneura pinguis. According to Hodgetts et al. (2020) the species is at present lacking a valid name, Aneura maxima is a SE Asian taxon which is not conspecific with the European taxon.
2 Lophocolea bidentata (incl. Lophocolea coadunata).
Hodgetts et al. (2020) report Lophocolea bidentata (L.) Dumort. (autoicous) and L. coadunata (Sw.) Mont. (dioicous) as separate species. As these two species were not distinguished in Slovakia in the past (herbarium documents of literary data are often missing or herbarium items are sterile), we do not treat them separately. Lophocolea bidentata probably prefers more acidic and nutrient-poor habitats, while L. coadunata often grows in human-influenced habitats (lawns, gardens, parks) (Köckinger 2017).
3 Lophozia guttulata, Lophozia longiflora.
As mentioned by Hodgetts et al. (2020), Lophozia guttulata was included in Lophozia longiflora, until Bakalin (2016) lectotypified L. longiflora. Available herbarium and literary records from Slovakia concern only the species L. guttulata, however, L. longiflora could probably also occur in our territory. Köckinger (2017) and Hodgetts et al. (2020) report this species as typical for acidic, peaty soil and rocks, while L. guttulata grows mostly on dead wood in moist habitats. The main morphological differences between L. longiflora and L. guttulata are in perianth armature, leaves length and width ratio and leaf shape (Bakalin 2016).
4 Mesoptychia bantriensis, Mesoptychia collaris.
Górski and Váňa (2014) accepted broad taxonomical concept of the species Mesoptychia bantriensis (Hook.) L. Söderstr. et Váňa (incl. Mesoptychia collaris (Nees) L. Söderstr. et Váňa). Based on works by Köckinger (2017), Klama and Górski (2018) and Hodgetts et al. (2020) we present both species separately. M. collaris grows mainly on alkaline rocks and it is relatively widespread on limestones of Slovak mountains. M. bantriensis occurs in wet habitats, springs, wetlands and also on wet rocks, e.g. at stream banks, similar to M. collaris. As not all herbarium items have been revised and some of them are unavailable for several literature data, real distribution and endangerment of M. bantriensis need to be updated.
5 Moerckia flotoviana, Moerckia hibernica.
Moerckia flotoviana (Nees) Schiffn. was synonymised with Moerckia hibernica (Hook.) Gottsche, both taxa were correctly separated by Crandall-Stotler and Stotler (2007). Most reports of M. hibernica from Slovakia belong to M. flotoviana. Species M. flotoviana grows scatteredly mainly in limestone areas of Slovakia, the distribution of M. hibernica is insufficiently known as not all herbarium specimens have been revised. Until the revision is not completely performed, we listed both species in the Data Deficient category.
6 Solenostoma obovatum, Solenostoma subellipticum.
Shaw et al. (2015) assigned species S. subellipticum (Lindb. ex Kaal.) R. M. Schust to species Solenostoma obovatum (Nees) C. Massal. Based on the work Hodgetts et al. (2020) and the known distribution in Slovakia (e.g. Duda and Váňa 1970, 1971; Górski and Váňa 2014) both are listed as separate species.
Discussion
Checklist
The presented checklist and red list include 231 species of liverworts (Marchantiophyta) with three additional subspecies and one variety, and two hornwort species (Anthocerotophyta). The previous checklist of Slovak bryophytes (Kubinská et al. 2001b) contained 221 liverworts and 2 hornworts (Table 2). In comparison with the previous checklist, 11 taxa are reported here as newly accepted (Marsupella aquatica, Moerckia flotoviana), newly reported (Fuscocephaloziopsis affinis (Váňa 2016), Lophozia silvicola (Górski and Váňa 2014) or new to Slovakia: Aneura maxima (Loskotová 2006), Cephaloziella stellulifera (Duda and Duda 2003), Conocephalum salebrosum (Górski and Váňa 2014), Gymnomitrion adustum (Górski and Váňa 2011), Lophozia savicziae (Górski and Váňa 2014), Nardia compressa (Górski 2010), Neoorthocaulis binsteadii (Górski 2012). Overall, the number of liverworts has increased by ten species since 2001 due to new findings, taxonomic and nomenclatural changes.
In Slovakia, only two hornwort species are recorded – Anthoceros agrestis and Phaeoceros carolinianus. Other taxa of the division Anthocerotophyta were found in the surrounding countries – Anthoceros neesii (Kučera et al. 2012; Köckinger 2017; Klama and Górski 2018), A. punctatus (Boiko 2014), Notothylas orbicularis (Kučera et al. 2012; Köckinger 2017) and Phaeoceros laevis (Boiko 2014; Klama and Górski 2018). Some of these species could possibly be found within the territory of Slovakia.
Redlist
Overall, 231 liverwort species and two hornworts were evaluated (Table 2). A total of 128 species (55.4% of the liverwort flora of Slovakia) were assessed as LC, while 10 species (4.3%) were categorized as CR, 18 (7.8%) as EN and 25 (10.8%) as VU, which represent 22.9% of the flora. A total of 17 species (7.4%) were categorized as NT and 27 species (11.6%) are data deficient (DD). Only for the liverwort Lunularia cruciata the criteria were not applicable since this species is not native to Slovakia. Seven species (3.0%) were considered as RE. Out of the two hornwort species, Phaeoceros carolinianus was included in the category NT, while Anthoceros agrestis is considered as LC.
There are seven liverworts listed in the category Regionally Extinct. Most species were found in the Tatra Mts (Biantheridion undulifolium, Gymnomitrion obtusum, G. revolutum, Haplomitrium hookeri and Scapania carinthiaca var. massalongi) (Górski and Váňa 2014), of which the liverwort Biantheridion undulifolium is also missing in the Czech Republic (Kučera et al. 2012), Austria (Köckinger 2017) and Poland (Klama and Górski 2018). Species Pallavicinia lyellii used to grow in the Záhorská nížina lowland (Janovicová and Kubinská 2002) and Riccia canaliculata in the Podunajská nížina lowland (Duda and Váňa 1968).
The category Critically Endangered includes mainly liverworts growing only in the Tatra Mts in Slovakia (Anastrophyllum donnianum, Marsupella apiculata, Nardia compressa, Neoorthocaulis binsteadii and Sphenolobus saxicola) (Górski and Váňa 2014). Species Cephaloziella stellulifera was reported from the Malá Fatra Mts (Duda and Duda 2003), Fuscocephaloziopsis affinis from the Muránska planina plateau (Váňa 2016) and Schistochilopsis grandiretis from the Ľubovnianska vrchovina Mts (Duda 1986). Fossombronia foveolata and Riccardia incurvata were found on a single locality in the Záhorská nížina lowland (Janovicová and Kubinská 2002).
Endangered category includes 18 liverwort species, mainly growing in alpine and mountain habitats (e.g. Cephaloziella varians, Frullania jackii, Jungermannia eucordifolia, Marsupella sparsifolia). Peat liverworts (e.g. Cephaloziella elachista, Odontoschisma francisci, O. fluitans) and species of xerothermic habitats (Asterella saccata, Riccia gougetiana, R. papillosa) also belong to this category.
Vulnerable category includes several naturally rare liverworts, mainly growing in alpine and subalpine habitat of the Tatra Mts (e.g. Asterella lindenbergiana, Eremonotus myriocarpus, Mannia pilosa, Schistochilopsis opacifolia) and hygrophilous species of wetlands and peatlands (e.g. Harpanthus flotovianus, Odontoschisma elongatum, Schljakovia kunzeana).
A relatively large group is represented by species of the Data Deficient category (27 species), which reflected the insufficiently known distribution and endangerment of liverworts, but also taxonomic changes in the status of some species (e.g. Moerckia hibernica, Mesoptychia bantriensis, Lophozia silvicola).
In Europe, there are currently 461 liverwort and eight hornwort species, of which 22.5% and 25%, respectively, are evaluated as threatened (Hodgetts et al. 2019). Among the species occurring in Slovakia, Cephalozia lacinulata is categorized as CR, Asterella saccata, Biantheridion undulifolium, Cephaloziella massalongi, Scapania carinthiaca var. massalongi as EN and Cephaloziella elachista, Frullania jackii, Gymnomitrion alpinum, Heterogemma laxa, Lophozia savicziae, Mannia fragrans, M. triandra, Marchantia romanica, Marsupella condensata, Moerckia blyttii, M. hibernica, Pallavicinia lyellii and Scapania brevicaulis as VU in the European Red List of mosses, liverworts and hornworts (Hodgetts et al. 2019).
Anthropogenic changes in natural conditions and degradation of the ecosystems (e.g. groundwater decline, waterflow regulation, vascular plant succession, vanishing of wetlands and peatlands) cause decrease in populations of many liverwort and hornwort species or their complete retreat from natural habitats of Central Europe (Staniaszek-Kik and Woziwoda 2011; Dittrich et al. 2016). Factors that lead to these changes are mainly caused by agriculture, forestry, aquaculture, industry and traffic pollution, tourism, and residential development. Climatic changes in recent decades, especially long-term drought and heat, can reduce the population of several hygrophilous species.
In Central European conditions, hornworts as ephemeral plants grow in summer and autumn on bare soil, especially in fields and fallows. Climate changes with hot, dry summers and small amount of autumn rainfalls caused scarcely any records in recent years. However, long-term changes in distribution and chorology of hornworts cannot be evaluated yet, as their spores can survive in the latent state in the soil for long periods (Bisang 1996).
