Hi Praveen

Bryophytes are true amphibians. They require water for every physiological needs. Even cell to cell communication is in need of water , not only reproduction. Pteridophytes upto major extent have curbed this need of water and they have vasculature and other tissues developed. So they are not true amphibians.

Hope it helps :)
