The chromosome numbers for Andreaea depressinervis (n = 10), Andreaea gainii (n = 10), Chorisodontium aciphyllum (n = 12), Encalypta patagonica (n = 13), Conostomum magellanicum (n = 8), Calliergidium austro-stramineum (n = 22), and Calliergon sarmentosum (n = 11) are reported here for the 1st time. [Polytrichum alpinum, P. juniperinum, P. piliferum, Pohlia cruda var. imbricata, P. nutans, Bartramia patens, Drepanocladus uncinatus and Brachythecium austro-salebrosum are the other species that were studied.].
