West Antarctic Peninsula, Graham Coast, on a unique vegetated point on the western coast of Lahille Island at the north-eastern entrance of Leroux Bay west of Barison Peninsula, 65°33’12.89”S, 64°23’42.14”W, on ground in the bryophyte carpet and mat subformation, 7.II.2020, Parnikoza 6/20 (KRAM [B-258878]). REMARKS Brachythecium austroglareosum was found on soil in a stand of the community dominated by bryophytes, including Polytrichum juniperinum and Pohlia drummondii, in which both native vascular plants, Deschampsia antarctica and Colobanthus quitensis, also had a considerable share.
