Abstract

This work adds a new location and first record of Botrychium dusenii
(Christ) Alston in Central Chile. The survey of a high Andean mountain range in Santiago, expanded
its northern distributional limit about 1,365 km and 12,25 latitudinal degrees. This taxon was found
above 3,000 masl in an ecotonal boundary of high Andean wetland ecosystems in Olivares river
basin, Santiago Metropolitan Region. The finding reveals the limited information available about the
chorology of this species in Chile and the gap of collections among the Region de Aisén del General
Carlos Ibáñez del Campo and its current distribution. It is proposed for this species the conservation
status to Chile as Data Deficient (DD).
