Moss
Mosses are small, non-vascular plant, non-vascular flowerless plants in the taxonomic phylum, division Bryophyta (, ) ''sensu stricto''. Bryophyta (''sensu lato'', Wilhelm Philippe Schimper, Schimp. 1879) may also refer to the parent group bryophytes, which comprise Marchantiophyta, liverworts, mosses, and hornworts. Mosses typically form dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple leaf, leaves that are generally only one cell thick, attached to a plant stem, stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients. Although some species have conducting tissues, these are generally poorly developed and structurally different from similar tissue found in vascular plants. Mosses do not have seeds and after fertilisation develop sporophytes with unbranched stalks topped with single capsules containing sporangium, spores. They are typically tall, though some species ar ...

Zygodon Gracilis
''Zygodon gracilis'', the slender yokemoss, is a moss species in the family Orthotrichaceae. It is a rare lithophyte found to only grow on certain localities of limestone outcrops that has high calcium carbonate content. The current global conservation status of Z. ''gracilis'' is considered to be "imperiled". Morphology ''Zygodon gracilis'' is a dioicous, acrocarpus moss that grows in turfs of around 5 cm tall. The squarrose, lanceolate leaves bends away from the stem when moist and becomes contorted when dry. The leaves have distinctive toothed margins near the apex that sets it apart from other ''Zygodon'' species. Newer leaves appear dull green that become reddish-brown lower down in the shoot. Sporophytes are very rare and have only been documented twice, both in England in 1866 and most recently in 2002. The species do not exhibit any specialized asexual reproductive structures in the wild. Distribution Europe The species is found in temperate regions of Europe, ...

Zygodon Viridissimus
''Zygodon viridissimus'', the green yokemoss, is a species of moss belonging to the family Orthotrichaceae. It has almost cosmopolitan distribution In biogeography, a cosmopolitan distribution is the range of a taxon that extends across most or all of the surface of the Earth, in appropriate habitats; most cosmopolitan species are known to be highly adaptable to a range of climatic and en ....

Orthotrichales
Orthotrichaceae is the only family of mosses in the order Orthotrichales. Many species in the family are epiphytic An epiphyte is a plant or plant-like organism that grows on the surface of another plant and derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, water (in marine environments) or from debris accumulating around it. The plants on which epiphyt .... Genera Accepted genera include:Orthotrichaceae in GBIF Secretariat (2023). GBIF Backbone Taxonomy. Checklist dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/39omei.
