Слика од Pleuridium mexicanum Cardot 1910

Опис:

This photograph was was taken at the site where this moss was found in the United States for the first time. We were on a Spring Bryophyte outing and visited a place where sterile plants of what turned out to be this taxon had been seen a month earlier by Paul Wilson and others. The fertile condition enabled these plants to be identified as Pleuridium mexicanum, new to the Untied States. (See The Bryologist 110(3):510-513. 2007). This is an overview image, the plants are the pale green pencil like stems to the left of the coin, mixed in with an upright green acrocarpous moss and a matted small dark liverwort.
