Bryhnia novae-angliae was found recently
in collections from Kostroma Province in central European Russia, 58° 14'N –
44°25' E. The only other collection from European Russia was made by Brotherus
in Arkhangelsk in 1872, but that specimen was erroneusly identified as Myuroclada
maximowiczii. Thus, the latter species is excluded from the bryoflora of
Europe.
