Anomobryum julaceum, the slender silver-moss,[2] is a species of bryophyte native to all continents except South America and Antarctica.

Additional micro-habitats include tussock tundra with seeps and late snow melt areas and on granitic outcrops.

In eastern North America it appears to be restricted to acid habitats, in the wet crevices of sandstone cliffs or other seepy niches.

Aongstroemia orientalis is a similar-looking species to A. julaceum in having short, julaceous stems and broadly obtuse leaves.

[4] Their stems are orange and forked by innovations and often produce numerous red ovoid brood bodies in the leaf axils.

The Oregon Natural Heritage Information Center reports it from Baker, Clatsop, and Klamath Counties.
