- Observation Twelve Buxbaumia viridis habitat patches contained 60 conservation concern species.
- Observation The patches contained 37 lichen species of conservation concern.
- Observation The patches contained 23 bryophyte species of conservation concern.
- Observation Woodland indicator and dead-wood specialist species dominated among conservation concern bryophytes.
- Observation Red-listed epiphytic species dominated conservation concern lichens.
- Observation Legally protected bryophytes and lichens were scarce.
- Observation Sites without Buxbaumia viridis had lower total conservation concern richness, at 48 species.
- Observation Mean conservation concern species per plot did not differ significantly between site groups.
- Observation Gemmae of Buxbaumia viridis were confirmed for the first time in Estonia.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that logging-free zones around Buxbaumia localities can protect other bryophytes and lichens.
