He became particularly interested in the endemic flora which led to a long-time association with the Tasmania Herbarium. Moscal focussed increasingly on bryophytes and in retirement became a fixture at the Tasmanian Herbarium while he identified and curated his specimens. He was co-author of several landmark publications on Tasmania's endemic and endangered flora including Atlas of mosses and liverworts in Tasmania (1987) and An atlas of Tasmania's endemic flora (1983). Moscal's collections of over 31,000 specimens, many rarely collected and from very remote locations, is in the Tasmanian Herbarium. 1950 1950 Life event - Migrated to Tasmania Tasmanian Herbarium (1976 - )
