Summary This thesis examines the distribution of moss assemblages of non-Eucalypt woodland along a rainfall gradient in semi-arid natural parkland of north-western Victoria, Australia to determine: 1. whether the moss flora showed a sequential change in species assemblage along the rainfall gradient and to identify the environmental factors that explained this; 2. the habitat exploitation of the moss flora along the rainfall gradient and to determine the environmental factors that explain this; 3. whether life-form, leaf architecture or life strategies contribute to the explanation of moss distribution along the rainfall gradient." -- from the Abstract
