Notes:

Very common in small acid pools with low specific conductance values. In mosses, common in drier (mean F-value 4,8 ± 1,9) moss vegetations. Also common in wet, acid soils, mostly found in the larger valleys of the island (e.g. Vallée des Branloires).South Orkney Islands (Oppenheim 1990), South Georgia (Van de Vijver & Beyens 1996, 1997a), Kerguelen (Van de Vijver et al. 1998a, 2001).
