[Liparis loeselii was first reported from Nfld. in Titford & Titford (1995, photograph); attempts to relocate this species from an uncertain location near Stephenville, wNfld., have so far been unsuccessful. However, a new site for L. loeselii was discovered in a bog south of Corner Brook by a German tourist in 2007. This report was confirmed and documented with digital images by A.Voitk (J.Maunder, pers. comm. 2015).]
