Antipodal mosses: VI. Stegonia latifolia (Musci, Pottiaceae) in the Antarctic
Stegonia latifolia (Schwaegr. in Schult.) Vent. ex Broth. is recorded from the Antarctic on the basis of the specimens collected from Signy Island, South Orkney Island and King George Island, South Shetland Islands. The Antarctic material is briefly described and illustrated and the world geographic...
