The Bryologist is a peer reviewed scientific journal specializing in bryology.

It began as a department of The Fern Bulletin devoted to the study of North American mosses.

Its first editor was Abel Joel Grout, who intended the bulletin to be "enabling any one at all interested in mosses to get some knowledge of these plants without excessive labor or expense ... the editor will also try to identify for subscribers difficult specimens accompanied by notes and return postage.

"[1] Subsequent editors have included Lincoln Ware Riddle (from 1911),[2] and James D. Lawrey (from 2012).
