Herrero for extensive comments and discussion on the pteridophyte results; and E. Real, L. Barrios, and T. Villagarcia for statistical advice. J.M. conceived the study and generated floristic data on mosses and liverworts; A.M.F. produced GIS models; F.C. generated the pteridophyte data and co-wrote the results on this group; A.R.B. and I.M. generated the lichen data; and J.M. and A.M.F. designed and carried out the statistical analyses and co-wrote the paper.
