Anomodon longifolius, a montane species known from Europe and eastern and southern Asia, was collected for the first time in the New World, from the Adirondack Mountains of New York. Also, Anomodon thraustus, an Asian species with known records from Mexico, has its range extended to the eastern United States. It is a very rare species in North America known only from a few specimens from New Jersey, New York and North Carolina that had been mistaken for depauperate forms of A. minor.
