Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
The campus of the Universidade Federal de São Carlos, in the municipality of Sorocaba, is composed of a forest remnant characterized by vegetation of seasonal semidecidual tropical forest and cerrado. We recorded 96 species of bryophytes in the area 56 mosses (Fissidentaceae is the richest, with 11 spp.) and 40 liverworts (Lejeuneaceae is the most representative, with 21 spp.). Eight species are endemic to Brazil and two were mentioned for the first time in the State of São Paulo (Fissidens allionii Broth. and Lejeunea subsessilis Spruce). The predominance of corticolous species and mat life form indicate a strong relationship with the microclimate conditions of the environment, as well as the availability of substrate. The simultaneous presence of species from the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado indicates an transition zone bryoflora, at the same time that subcosmopolitan and ruderal species with wide distribution express the secondary character of the forest remnant.
RESUMO
O campus da Universidade Federal de São Carlos do município de Sorocaba é composto por um remanescente florestal caracterizado por vegetação de mata estacional semidecidual e cerrado. Foram encontradas 96 espécies de briófitas na área 56 musgos (sendo Fissidentaceae a família mais rica, com 11 spp.) e 40 hepáticas (sendo Lejeuneaceae a mais representativa, com 21 spp.). Oito espécies são endêmicas do Brasil e duas foram citadas pela primeira vez no Estado de São Paulo (Fissidens allionii Broth. e Lejeunea subsessilis Spruce). O predomínio de espécies corticícolas e da forma de vida em tapete indicam a forte relação com as condições microclimáticas do ambiente, assim como a disponibilidade de substrato. A presença simultânea de espécies da Mata Atlântica e do Cerrado indica uma área de transição, ao mesmo tempo que espécies de ampla distribuição, subcosmopolitas e ruderais expressam o caráter secundário do remanescente florestal.
