Lejeunea tumida is endemic to New Zealand, where it is common in lowland forests in the North Island. Reports of this species from Australia and Tasmania are based on misidentifications of other species, mostly Lejeunea gracilipes , which also has an eplicate perianth. For description, illustration and details of ecology and distribution see Renner et al. (2010).
