The paper presents new bryophyte records from Tristan da Cunha, highlighting the discovery of Bucklandiella pachydictyon, a moss species with an amphiatlantic distribution. It discusses the ecological significance of this species within the cool-temperate zone and its range from southern South America to various subantarctic islands. By documenting these records, the study enhances the understanding of the phytogeographical status of bryophytes in relation to oceanic disjunctions and expands the known diversity of mosses in the region.
