|discussion=<p>Reports of <i>Loeskeobryum brevirostre</i> from Ontario and Quebec have not been confirmed. The collection by Macoun from Owen Sound (1191, 28 July 1871, CANM) is correctly identified but far from the Appalachian range of the species. All Quebec collections labeled as <i>L. brevirostre</i> examined for this study were misidentified.</p>
