Elevation, Habitat and Distribution Maps for BC Dicranum Species

All data pulled from the Flora of North America Website/Database using their queries. Elevation data seems very wonky-- lots of sea level Dicranum not listed at sea level, lots of montane at sea level-- probably artifact of behaviour of entire species range (outside of BC, too).

Species	Elevation	Habitat	Map Link
Dicranum acutifolium	700-2500 m	Somewhat calcareous soil, boulders, rock outcrops and cliff ledges, sometimes humus, rarely rotten logs	Here
Dicranum bonjeanii	60-1300 m	Mainly in eutrophic fens, sometimes on calcareous soil or rock	Here
Dicranum brevifolium	70-3700 m	Humus or soil over rock, rarely rotted wood, exposed to protected bluffs or cliffs	Here
Dicranum elongatum	30-3700 m	Common in arctic or alpine tundra, soil, rocks or soil over rocks, rock ledges, cliff shelves, rarely decayed wood and stumps, sometimes in bogs and fens	Here
Dicranum flagellare	0-1300 m	Rotting wood, especially stumps and logs, base of trees, exposed tree roots, soil or humus over boulders usually in mesic woods, sometimes swamps and bogs	Here
Dicranum fragilifolium	30-1900 m	Rotten logs and stumps, humic soil, humus over rocks, usually in coniferous woods, occasionally in mixed woods and bogs	Here
Dicranum groenlandicum	10-3800 m	Arctic or alpine tundra, soil, humus or rocks, sometimes in bogs and fens	Here
Dicranum howellii	20-600 m	Soil, humus, humus over rock, rotting logs and stumps, tree trunks and bases of trees, sometimes in bogs	Here
Dicranum leioneuron	10-1100 m	Primarily in hummocks in ombrotrophic and oligotrophic peatlands	Here
Dicranum montanum	0-2800 m	Rotting stumps and logs, tree bases (usually deciduous trees), occasionally soil or humus over rock, especially boulders and cliff ledges, in dry to mesic woods, rarely swamps	Here
Dicranum muehlenbeckii	10-3100 m	Humus and sandy soil on cliffs, bluffs, often over boulders and among rocks in open woods or exposed sites	Here
Dicranum pallidisetum	500-2000 m	Humus or soil over rock, rarely rotting logs or decayed wood	Here
Dicranum polysetum	10-2100 m	Commonly on humus, soil over acidic or calcareous rock, and decaying wood in deciduous or more often coniferous forests, occasionally in bogs, fens, and swamps	Here
Dicranum scoparium	50-2900 m	Soil, humus, humus over rock, decaying stumps and logs, tree bases in dry to mesic woodlands, sometimes bogs, fens and swamps	Here
Dicranum spadiceum	10-2300 m	Fens, wet meadows, willow thickets, or humus or soil on or around rocks at lake margins, occasionally drier habitats, such as beach ridges	Here
Dicranum tauricum	150-2200 m	Frequently on rotten logs, stumps, or tree bases in woodlands, sometimes on humus or humus over rock	Here
Dicranum undulatum	10-2200 m	Usually in wet habitats, especially bogs in Sphagnum hummocks, fens, swamps, marshes, margins of lakes, sometimes on or among rocks, rock outcrops and cliffs, occasionally in mesic woods or on dry bluffs on soil, rotten wood, or humus	Here
