Abstract

Two small populations of the continental xerophytic moss species Hilpertia velenovskyi were discovered in the Vértes Mts and Mezőföld region (near Csákberény and Lovasberény, respectively) growing on vertical loess cliffs. Both populations are rather small and are restricted just to a small surface of the cliffs, covering only a few square decimeters. At both new sites the species occurs together with Tortula brevissima and Pterygoneurum lamellatum, two species also protected by law in Hungary.
