“…It is a south-temperate species with a highly disjunct geographical range that covers the North and South Islands of New Zealand (Bartlett & Frahm, 1983), Tierra del Fuego and Western Patagonia (Frahm, 1976;Greene, 1986) and some subantarctic islands in the Kerguelen Biogeographical Province in the South Indian Ocean (Frahm, 1985(Frahm, , 1988. In the latter region, C. purpureocaulis has so far been recorded only from the Prince Edward Islands (van Zanten, 1971 as C. arboricola Cardot & Dixon;Ochyra & Hertel, 1990) and Îles Crozet (Ellis et al, 2013c). Hence, its discovery on the Îles Kerguelen, the largest and the oldest archipelago in this province was to be expected.…”

“…Thanks to the present discovery and many earlier additions made in the last two decades (e.g. Blockeel, Chlebicki, et al 2006;Ellis, Bednarek-Ochyra, Ochyra, Benjumea, et al 2013;Ellis, Bakalin, et al 2013;Ellis, Alegro, et al 2015;Ochyra, Sollman, et al 2015;Ellis, Alataş, et al 2017), as well as resolving the taxonomic status of some subantarctic species (e.g. Ochyra and Lewis Smith 1998;Ochyra and Bednarek-Ochyra 2013;Bednarek-Ochyra 2014), the moss flora of the archipelago had been increased to about 75 species.…”

A brief survey of bryological studies in the Subantarctic, including Macrocoma tenue (Orthotrichaceae), a moss genus and species newly found in Îles Kerguelen

“…In contrast, the moss flora of Îles Crozet was least known until the late 1970s and about 40 species have so far been recorded from Île de la Possession and Île de l'Est, the two largest islands of this archipelago [67,68]. Subsequent field studies have added over 30 additional species to the moss flora [5,49,[69][70][71][72][73][74] and the taxonomic status of some species described from Îles Crozet has been clarified [75][76][77].…”
