Abstract

Mount Gede Pangrango National Park (MGPNP) has a biodiversity of flora, fauna, and ecosystems that are important for preserving hydrological and climatic functions. Moss (Bryophyta), as a non-vascular flora, plays a role in maintaining water balance, nutrient cycle, and is an environmental bioindicator. This study aims to identify the diversity of moss in the Halimun Camping Ground, MGPNP, with a qualitative descriptive method. Samples were taken by purposive sampling at the Cibeureum waterfall path, identified morphologically in the laboratory, and classified using a species Identification Sheet and a microscope. The results of this study identified 23 moss species, including 18 species of true mosses (Bryopsida and Polytrichopsida), 4 species of liver mosses (Marchantiopsida and Jungermanniopsida), and 1 species of horn moss (Notothyladaceae). True mosses dominated, reflecting their adaptability to the area's microclimate, underscoring their role as ecological stabilizers.
