In this study, the bryophyte flora of Karınca Mountain (Pozantı-Adana, South Turkey) was investigated. In different vegetation periods between 2019-2021, bryophyte specimens were collected from various habitats of the study area. As a result of the identification studies, 26 families, 65 genera and a total of 195 taxa (190 mosses, five liverworts) were determined. Twenty of them were new records for C13 grid-square. Pottiaceae (56 taxa), Grimmiaceae (27 taxa) and Brachytheciaceae (22 taxa) have been the richest families in the study area, while Grimmia (15 taxa), Syntrichia (15 taxa), Ptychostomum (13 taxa), and Orthotrichum (12 taxa) have been the most common genera. Also, Grimmia pulvinata, Homalothecium philippeanum, Lewinskya rupestris, Syntrichia ruralis, S. virescens, Tortula inermis, and T. subulata have been the most common species in the study area.
