HAPLOMITRIUM HOOKERI (Sm.) Nees 
Is known only from one locality at present, in marshy 
ground in rather peaty soil near the sea-shore on Loch 
Moidart. Is a difficult plant to detect in the field, and is 
probably sometimes overlooked. In the Moidart locality 
it grows in company with Aneura pinguis, A. multi- 
fida, Hypnum scorpioides, H. revolvens, Heliocharis 
multicaulis.
