Gigaspermum mouretii Corb. in the Balearic Islands

Abstract

We quote Gigaspermum mouretii Corb. form the first time in Balearic Island. To this moment these island represent the northern limit in the distribution area for this species. We also present a detailed description of its sporophyte, as well as some data concerning the substrate where it lives, suggesting a preference for decarbonated soils with a relatively high nutrient content.
