Abstract: The moduli space mathcalMg, of genus ggeq2 closed Riemann surfaces, is a complex orbifold of dimension 3(g1) which carries a natural real structure i.e. it admits an anti-holomorphic involution sigma. The involution sigma maps each point corresponding to a Riemann surface S to its complex conjugate overlineS. The fixed point set of sigma consists of the isomorphism classes of closed Riemann surfaces admitting an anticonformal automorphism. Inside mathrmFix(sigma) is the locus mathcalMg(mathbbR), the set of real Riemann surfaces, which is known to be connected by results due to P. Buser, M. Sepp"{a}l"{a} and R. Silhol. The complement mathrmFix(sigma)mathcalMg(mathbbR) consists of the so called pseudo-real Riemann surfaces, which is known to be non-connected. In this short note we provide a simple argument to observe that mathrmFix(sigma) is connected.
