Frullania, Pogonatum and Bryum are the most dominant Genus and Polytrichaceae, Bryaceae and Jubulaceae are dominant families.

Accordingly, an attempt was made to document detailed account of bryophytes of the study area. This finding will lead to a better knowledge of Bryophytes and their distribution in Tawi Wildlife Sanctuary as well as in Mizoram. |
