The results of a bryofloristic study on the Italian Carnic Alps are reported. The bryophytes collected are 177 of wich 53 liverworts and 124 mosses. Among them 10 species are new records for the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region and 2 for the Veneto region. The bryoflora is typically montane and subalpine, very rich and well diversified, with a predominance of boreo-temperate and boreo-arctic-montane species. Among the liverworts it is to highlight the occurrence of the rare taxa in Italy Blepharostoma trichophyllum subsp. brevirete, Saccogyna viticulosa, Mylia taylorii, Scapania gracilis and Conocephalum salebrosum, the last one second record for Italy. Among the mosses, we emphasize the occurrence of Schistidium dupretii and Ulota coartata, the last one up to now considered extinct in Italy.
