The article presents data on the state of the study of the bryoflora in the Tambov region. We have justified conservation status categories for rare bryophytes recommended for inclusion in the second edition of the Red Data Book of the Tambov region. All known locations, general distribution features, ecological-coenotical confinement, some population characteristics were given for each species. The estimation of territorial protection was conducted. The priority of limiting factors was identified.
