Abstract

Montane mosses are an important component of the flora in the Gulf of St. Lawrence region, where many species are rare and/or disjunct from the Arctic or the Western Cordillera. This paper presents an annotated list for 44 montane species as documentation for conservation work and future studies. One species, Orthotrichum rupestre, is reported new to the region from Newfoundland. Occurrence in the Gulf region, global distribution, literature references, and conservation status are given for all taxa.
