|discussion=<p><i>Campylopus gracilis</i> is easily recognized by a very broad costa, occupying 3/4 or more of the leaf width, very small shortly rectangular, distal laminal cells and large auricles projecting distinctly into the costa. In Europe, the species is found in similar situations in the highly oceanic parts as in the west coast of North America, where it is found on Queen Charlotte Islands and adjacent mainland. It is also found (as in <i>C. atrovirens</i>) in the Alps.</p>
