Mosses and incidental lichens in siliceous areas of the Sunshine Meadows-Egypt Lake area of Banff National Park / prepared by Ryan James, B.Sc. for Parks Canada, Resource Conservation, Banff National Park.: R64-567/2019E-PDF
"Mosses are adapted to the substrates they live on. Many groups of mosses are differentiated based on whether they grow on siliceous, basic, or calcareous substrates. Alberta’s Rocky Mountains are dominated by areas of calcareous rock and areas of siliceous rock are rare. In Banff National Park siliceous rock occurs in a narrow one to two mountain range wide band along the Continental Divide from Citadel Peak to Lake Louise with scattered outcrops along the Icefields Parkway"--Introduction, page 1.
