Plant phylogeographic data from the Patagonian Channels are scant and it is largely unknown how the extensive Quaternary glaciations affected the population dynamics of the region's major vegetation component, that is cushion peat bogs (Magellanic moorland). Whether ice‐age glaciers wiped out all terrestrial plant life or whether some populations persisted in situ remains unclear. We reconstructed the phylogeography of two dominant Patagonian cushion peat bog species, Astelia pumila (G.Forst.) Gaudich. (Asteliaceae) and Donatia fascicularis J.R.Forst. & G.Forst. (Stylidiaceae), to test (a) the hypothesis of a glacial refugium for moorland plants in south‐central Chile and (b) the tabula rasa scenario for the Patagonian Channels. The retrieved phylogeographic patterns were compared with those reported previously for a further cushion peat bog species (Pfanzelt et al., Molecular Ecology 26, 4027–4044), with the objective to provide a broader picture of how West Patagonian moorland plants responded to the Quaternary ice‐ages.
