Lejeuneaceae was determined to be the richest family of genera and species (18 genera / 28 species). The distribution of the species showed a high specificity for substrates soil, bark and leaf for different studies areas. Of the total number of species, 8 represent new records for the country, while 12 species are additions to the bryoflora of the mountain range. Cystolejeunea lineata (Lehm. & Lindenb.) Evans, are considered vulnerable according to th International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in the Libro Rojo de las Briofitas de Colombia.
