Chiastocaulon proliferum occurs in New Zealand and Australia in cool-temperate rainforests, but does not appear to be common in either country on the basis of currently available herbarium records. In Australia, C. proliferum is known by a single mixedspecies gathering in Tasmania from a rotting log on the forest floor. In New Zealand, C. proliferum is often encountered in forest-floor or near-floor microsites, including rotting logs, tree roots and tree-trunk bases and lower trunks.

Notes
editorial
New Zealand hepaticologists, when discussing New Zealand liverworts for the 2020 Threatened list, decided to accept this species in the genus Chiastocaulon over its treatment in Plagiochilion by Engel & Merrill in A Flora of the Liverworts and Hornworts of New Zealand (2019)
