Bryoerythrophyllum caledonicum commonly known as Scottish Beard-moss is a moss endemic to Scotland. Recognised as a distinct species in 1982 it had been collected occasionally from 1891 onwards under other names. The largest populations are in the Breadalbane mountains including Ben Lawers with smaller populations in mainland Lochaber and on the islands of Skye and Rùm. It has a very restricted habitat growing only on damp montane schist or basalt ledges.
