Mosses of Chile 

An updated checklist of the mosses of Chile 

Frank Müller 

Abstract: The distribution by regions and provinces is provided for each of the 890 moss taxa 

currently accepted in Chile. All records are supported by literature references, and the number of 

taxa recorded for each region is given. Synonyms with their owning taxa are intercalated 

alphabetically in the list. 

Introduction 

The last checklist of the mosses of Chile was completed in the end of 1996 and was published in 

1998 (He 1998). Since this time a considerable bulk of new data on the mosses of Chile has been 

published. This provided the stimulus to produce a new checklist. The present study attempts an 

updated version of the checklist of He (1998) and contains all data available up to the end of 

November 2009. 

For a lot of families and genera of the area critical taxonomic revisions were published in the last 

years. This includes Amblystegiaceae (Hedenäs 2003, Ochyra & Matteri 2001), Bartramia 

(Fransén 2004), Campylopus (Frahm 2005), Fissidens (Müller & Pursell 2003), Grimmia (Muñoz 

1999, Muñoz & Panda 2000), Hypopterygiaceae (Kruijer 2002), Lepyrodon (Allen 1999), 

Meesiaceae (Matteri & Ochyra 1999), Tortula (Cano & Gallego 2008), and Zygodon (Calabrese 

2006). In addition, there is also a remarkable progress in the floristic investigation of Chile (Isla 

Navarino in province Antártica Chilena: Buck 2002, Goffinet et al. 2006; regions Tarapacá and 

Antofagasta: Cano 2003; the Los Lagos and Los Ríos regions: Frey & Schaumann 2002, 

Schaumann 2005, Larrain 2005, 2007, 2007b; Easter Island: Ireland & Bellolio 2002; the Bío-Bío 

region: Ireland et al. 2007; the Maule Region: Müller & Pereira 2006, Pereira et al. 2006). 

In addition, new information’s resulted in checklists and floras of neighboring regions, e. g., the 

new checklist of Argentina (Matteri 2003b), the Flora of King George Island, Antarctica (Ochyra 

1998), and the Flora of Antarctica (Ochyra et al. 2008). 

Taxonomic revisions are just on the way for Syntrichia (M.J. Cano, M.T. Gallego) and 

Racomitrium s.l. (J. Larraín), so in next future the certain determination of Chilean specimens of 

these groups will be possible. Nevertheless, there still are problematic genera of which 

determination of Chilean material is at the moment difficult. These include Andreaea, 

Dicranoloma, Hymenoloma, Ditrichum, Macromitrium, Mielichhoferia, Pohlia, Ptychomitrium, 

Rhaphidorrhynchium, Schistidium, Schizymenium, Sematophyllum, and Sphagnum. Hopefully, in 

next future these genera will be dealt in systematic revisions. 

For the compilation of the present checklist there were evaluated the following sources: 

1.) The checklist published by He (1998). 

2.) About 200 additional publications newly published ones and older ones not included in He 

(1998). 

3.) The herbarium database of the herbarium of New York (NY) and the Tropicos database of the 

Missouri Botanical Garden (MO).

4.) Results of the investigation of herbarium material deposited in the herbaria’s of Paris (PC) and 

Stockholm (S). 

5.) Results of the determination of Chilean moss material in the herbarium of Dresden (DR). 

Important records of this were already published separately (Müller 2002, Müller 2009). 

The arrangement of the checklist 

The arrangement of the alphabetically list of recorded taxa follows He (1998). To each taxon 

references are given. To show the range of each taxon in Chile, its regional and provincial 

distribution is given. 

Chile is divided into 15 regions. Every region is further divided into provinces. Each region is 

designated by a name and a Roman numeral. The only exception is the region housing the nation's 

capital, which is designated RM, that stands for Región Metropolitana (Metropolitan Region). 

Two new regions, Arica and Parinacota in the north, and Los Ríos in the south, were created in 

2006, and became operative in October 2007. In the numbering scheme, Region XIII was skipped; 

Arica and Parinacota was designated Region XV, while Los Ríos was designated Region XIV. 

The division of Chile in political regions is shown in Figure 1. The regional distribution of each 

taxon is given in the list in the order from north to south. 

The number of accepted taxa recorded for each political region of Chile as well as for Juan 

Fernández Islands and Easter Island is provided in Table 1. To show the progress in the 

bryological exploration of the regions the species numbers of the previous checklist of He (1998) 

are given. 

All validly published names that are widely accepted or that reflect opinions expressed in 

published monographs are written in the checklist in bold face italic font. Taxa with insufficiently 

known status, e. g., mostly nomina nuda, and illegitimate names, are written in non bold face italic 

font. 

Heterotypic synonyms or taxonomic synonyms are marked by an equal sign (=) followed by a 

reference of an author. Homotypic or nomenclatural synonyms are indicated by an identity sign 

(≡). 

In Chile, 890 moss taxa are currently accepted from 230 genera and 68 families. The systematic 

arrangement of the genera and families follows with minor modifications the sequence of Goffinet 

et al. (2008). 

Despite checking and re-checking, some errors doubtless remain undetected in this document, and 

literature overlooked, and the author would be very grateful to know of any of these. Comments 

please send to Frank.Mueller@tu-dresden.de 

This document is not intended as a taxonomic work. The quality of the data in this list is variable 

in its taxonomic quality, although it attempts to present the latest position for all taxa.

Taxa reported from Chile arranged alphabetically by genera and species 

The checklist is in alphabetical order of taxon name, with current names shown in bold face italic 

font. Illegitimate names, nomina nuda, and doubtful taxa attributed to Chile shown in non bold 

face italic font. Names placed in synonymy are indented and shown in a smaller font, together with 

the owning taxon and a literature source for the synonymy. 

Literature references are given for each taxon. To show the regional distribution for each taxon 

abbreviations of the regions and the names of the provinces from where it is recorded, are 

provided. The abbreviations of the regions follow the scheme of Table 1. The regional distribution 

is given in the order from north to south. For the recently created Los Ríos region (region XIV) it 

was impossible to recheck all the literature sources to find out whether the records are from 

province Valdivia or from the newly created province Ranco. Therefore for records from this 

region no detailed provincial distribution is provided.

Taxa excluded or doubtful from Chile 

Anacolia laevisphaera (Taylor) Flowers 

The species is recorded under different names (A. laevisphaerea, A. subsessilis, A. subsessilis var. 

brevifolia) from many regions of Chile (IV, V, RM, VI, VII, VIII, IX, XIV, X, XI, and Juan 

Fernández Is.), e. g. by He (1998), Bartram (1957), Robinson (1975), Brotherus (1924b), Barrera 

(2006), and Espinosa (1941). Matteri (1983) has demonstrated that the material of all Chilean 

records checked by her represent Bartramia stricta. The occurrence of true Anacolia 

hemisphaerica in Chile is in need of confirmation. 

Atrichum androgynum (Müll.Hal.) A. Jaeger 

The species is cited by Nyholm (1971) without exact locality for Chile, but left in all regional 

publications of Chile. The record of this species and of the genus Atrichum in Chile is therefore 

most unlikely and need further studies. 

Bartramia halleriana Hedw. 

All South American material referred to this species belongs to Bartramia mossmaniana (Fransén 

2004a). 

Bartramia ithyphylla Brid. 

The species was excluded from Chile by Fransén (2004b). All records under this name from the 

area belong to B. ithyphylloides. 

Bartramia pomiformis Hedw. 

The species occurs only in the northern hemisphere (Fransén 2004a). Records from the area 

(Mitten 1869, Cardot 1908) must therefore belong to other species of the genus. 

Breutelia pendula (Sm.) Mitt. 

Dusén (1903b) and Cardot (1908) give records for the province of Antártica Chilena in Magallanes 

region. The species was excluded from the area by Matteri (1973c). This is in accordance with 

Jolley & Klazenga (2007), which describe the distribution as restricted to Australasia. 

Breutelia polygastrica (Müll. Hal.) Broth. 

Thériot (1934b) gives a record of this species under the synonym Breutelia cuspidatissima from 

the province Valdivia. Griffin (1988) cited only records from Costa Rica to Bolivia and from 

northern Argentina. The occurrence of this species in Chile is most unlikely and needs verification. 

Bryohumbertia filifolia (Hornsch.) J.-P. Frahm 

The species is cited in Brotherus (1924c) under the synonym Campylopus macrophyllus from 

Chile, but in the original description (Müller 1848) and also in Mitten (1869) the record is given as 

„Peru ad Cuchero: Pöppig“.

Müller 

Bucklandiella heterosticha (Hedw.) Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra (Racomitrium heterostichum 

[Hedw.] Brid.) 

The records of this species from southern South America are doubtless erroneous (Ochyra et al. 

2008). 

Campylopus areodictyon (Müll. Hal.) Mitt. 

The species was excluded from the area by Frahm (2005). 

Campylopus asperifolius Mitt. 

Mitten (1869) cited the species from “Andes Chilenses (Tatanara)”. The species was collected by 

Lechler in Tatanara, which is situated in the today’s Peru (Frahm 1991). 

Campylopus savannarum (Müll.Hal.) Mitt. 

The species was excluded from Chile by Frahm (1998). 

Codriophorus aquaticus (Brid. ex Schrad.) Bednarek-Ochyra & Ochyra (Racomitrium aquaticum 

[Brid. ex Schrader] Brid.) 

The species was excluded from the area by Bednarek-Ochyra (2006). 

Conostomum tetragonum (Hedw.) Lindb. 

Frahm et al. (1996) synonymized C. pentastichum with the northern hemispheric C. tetragonum. 

Since this time the species is treated in different references under this name from Chile (e. g., 

Goffinet et al. 2006, Buck 2002, and Buck 2004). Ochyra et al. (2008) doesn’t accept this 

synonymization and treated C. pentastichum as a clearly distinct taxon. 

Didymodon pruinosus (Mitt.) R.H.Zander 

The record of this species from Chiloé is probably a label mistake (Jiménez & Cano 2008). 

Records of Bryoerythrophyllum fuscinervium, now a synonym of D. pruinosus, from Chile were 

misidentified mainly with D. fuscus (Jiménez & Cano 2008). 

Entosthodon balansae Besch. 

The species was excluded from the Chilean bryoflora by Cuvertino & Buffa (2009). Specimens 

from Chile reported under this name represent either Entostodon obtusifolius, Funaria chilensis or 

Physcomitrium sp. 

Fissidens julianus (Savi ex DC.) Schimp. 

The record from Chile in Herzog (1954) belongs to Fissidens berteroi (Müller & Pursell 2003). 

Fissidens osmundoides Hedw. 

Specimens from Chile identified as such belong to Fissidens adianthoides (Müller & Pursell 

2003). 

Funaria erectiuscula Mitt. 

The species is given with the record “Andes Chilensis, Mendoza (leg. Gillies)“ by Mitten (1869) 

and is therefore included in the Chilean checklist by He (1998). This record is situated in the 

nowadays territory of Peru and the species is therefore excluded from Chile. 

Juratzkaea leptura (Taylor) W.A. Weber ex W.R. Buck 

The Chilean record of this Australian and South African moss given by He (1998) is most unlikely 

and needs confirmation. 

ISSN 0945-3466



Lepidopilum erectiusculum (Taylor) Mitt. 

The species is given with the record “Andes Chilenses (Sachapata)“ by Mitten (1869) and is 

therefore included in the Chilean checklist by He (1998). The record lie in the nowadays territory 

of Peru and the species must therefore excluded from Chile. 

Leptotrichella kunzeana (Müll. Hal.) Ochyra (Dicranella kunzeana Müll. Hal., Microdus 

kunzeanus [Müll. Hal.] Broth.) 

The species is cited as Dicranella kunzeana for Chile by Mitten (1869) with the record “Chili et 

Peru ad Chuchero”. Therefore the species is included in the checklist of He (1998). The record of 

Mitten is situated in the nowadays territory of Peru and the species must therefore excluded from 

Chile. 

Muelleriella angustifolia (Hook.f. & Wilson) Dusén 

The species is cited by Dusén (1905a) from the Magallanes province. Following Vitt (1976) the 

species is endemic to Campbell Island, New Zealand. The record of Dusén will therefore belong to 

M. crassifolia. 

Orthotheciella varia (Hedw.) Ochyra 

The species recorded in different literature sources (e. g., Pereira et al. 2006, Buck 2002, Larraín 

2007a, He 1998, Müller & Pereira 2006, Ochyra & Matteri 2001, and Matteri & Schiavone 2002) 

as Orthotheciella varia for Chile represent in fact Cratoneuropsis relaxa subsp. minor (Ochyra et 

al. 2008). 

Philonotis fontanoides (Gillies & Grev.) A. Jaeger 

The species is given under the name Bartramia fontanoides with the record “Andes Chilensis, 

Mendoza (leg. Gillies)“ by Mitten (1869) and was therefore included in the Chilean checklist by 

He (1998). The record is situated in the nowadays territory of Peru and the species must therefore 

excluded from Chile. 

Plagiomnium rostratum (Schrad.) T.J. Kop. 

Dusén (1903b) and Cardot (1908) cited the species under the synonym Mnium rostratum from 

“Fuegia, Patagonia australis”. Koponen (1979) doesn’t cite this species for South America. 

Therefore the records of this species from the area will belong to other Plagiomnium species. 

Pogonatum cirratum (Sw.) Brid. subsp. fuscatum (Mitt.) Hyvönen 

The species is cited for Chile under the synonym Pogonatum spuriocirratum Broth. by Thériot 

(1926). Fide Hyvönen (1989) the distribution area of this species is restricted to East Asia, 

therefore the record from Chile is most unlikely. 

Polytrichadelphus umbrosus Mitt. 

He (1998) attributed the record of Mitten (1869) from “San Gavan” to Chile. In fact, San Gavan, is 

situated in Peru and therefore the species is excluded from the Chilean bryoflora. 

Pseudocrossidium mendozense (Mitt.) R.H. Zander 

Mitten (1869) gives a record as Tortula mendozensis from “Andes chilensis, Mendoza (leg. 

Gillies)“. This record is attributed in He (1998) to Chile, but in reality it is situated in the 

nowadays Peru. 

Pterygoneurum subsessilis (Brid.) Jur. 

Mitten (1869) gives a record as Tortula subsessilis from “Andes chilensis, Mendoza (leg. Gillies)“. 

This record is attributed in He (1998) to Chile, but in reality it is situated in the nowadays Peru.

Müller 

Ptychomnion aciculare (Brid.) Mitt. 

According to Hattaway (1984) all of the Chilean collections (e.g. Mitten 1869, Dusén 1903b, 

Cardot 1908, Bartram 1952) under this name represent Ptychomnion cygnisetum or Ptychomnion 

densifolium. 

Ptychomnion fruticetorum Müll. Hal. 

This species is only known from Brazil and doesn’t occur in Chile (Robinson 1970). However, 

Hattaway (1984) considered it to be a form of Ptychomnion cygnisetum and placed Ptychomnion 

horridum and Ptychomnion subaciculare in its synonyms. 

Pyrrhobryum medium (Besch.) Manuel 

The species was excluded from the area by Matteri & Piñero (1987). The Chilean records cited by 

He (1998) belongs to P. mnioides. 

Sphagnum imbricatum (Hornsch.) Russ. 

Warnstorf (1911) gives a record from Chiloé. The species was excluded from the flora of the area 

by Flatberg (1984). 

Syntrichia sarconeurum (Hook. f. & Wilson) Ochyra & R.H. Zander 

Records from western Patagonia in southern South America (e. g., Hässel et al. 1984, Matteri & 

Schiavone 2002, Matteri 1982, and Matteri 1985b) are erroneous and correctly refer to Syntrichia 

lithophila (Ochyra & Zander 2007, Ochyra et al. 2008). 

Tortula vahliana (Schultz) Mont. 

The species was cited from Quillota for Chile by Montagne (1850). Cano & Gallego (2008) have 

excluded the species from the area. 

Family placement 

Families are arranged alphabetically. The taxonomic arrangement of the families and genera 

follows with minor exceptions the classification of Goffinet et al. (2008). Following each genus is 

the number of accepted taxa recorded for Chile. The 890 taxa are assigned to 230 genera in 68 

families.

I wish to thank Si He for allowing me to use the data’s of his preliminary published Chilean checklist (He 

1998). 

Financial support for travels to the herbariums of Stockholm (S) and Paris (PC) was provided by the 

Synthesys program of the European Commission. I am grateful to the curators of PC and S, Catherine Rausch 

and Lars Hedenäs, for assistance during my stay at their institutions and for the loan of specimens.
