|discussion=<p><i>Herzogiella turfacea</i> is characterized by the often distant, erect- to wide-spreading, sometimes plicate leaves, appearing distichous due to their twisting to opposite sides of the stems and branches, poorly differentiated alar cells, and striate capsules. The species is common in northeastern North America between 40–50º N but rare farther south in North and South Carolina and Virginia. It is known from only a few scattered localities in Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Illinois, Montana, Ohio, and South Dakota.</p>
