Description	The fine-scale pattern of moss species composition and species richness was studied using 9 transects streching from mineral-rich pools to high, ombrotrophic hummocks. The height above water level, pH, conductivity and redox potential were measured in all of 79 sample plots (78.5 cm2). A complete exchange of species composition was recorded along the ca 3-meter long transects.
