Abstract
The present study was designed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of ethanolic extracts of 15 Indian mosses.

Sphagnum junghuhnianum, Barbula javanica, Barbula arcuata, Brachythecium populeum, Brachythecium rutabulum, Mnium marginatum and Entodon cf rubicundus were found to be most active against all the organisms.Entities:
