Abstract: During the systematic fi eld studies aimed at exploring the recent bryophyte flora of the Kőszeg Mts and in the framework of grid-cell based bryophyte recording, Plagiothecium latebricola Schimp. was discovered in the Kőszeg Mts. Th e size of the population is estimated and the habitats are characterized. Illustrations, a short description and a taxonomic key are provided to distinguish it from the other species of Plagiothecium in Hungary. Although P. latebricola might possibly be
found in other parts of the country as well, it is known only in one location so far. Consequently, the species should be considered as critically endangered (CR).Keywords: Hungary, new record, Kőszeg Mts, bryophyte diversity, moss species
