|discussion=<p><i>Aphanorrhegma serratum</i> resembles the sympatric <i>Physcomitrella patens</i>, from which it differs in its capsule’s regular line of dehiscence and collenchymatous exothecial cells; it also grows occasionally with <i>Physcomitrium immersum</i>. The latter two species are small and both have an immersed operculate capsule. <i>Physcomitrium immersum</i> is distinguished by a distal line of dehiscence (versus equatorial in <i>A. serratum</i>), the presence of an annulus of small cells, the thin-walled (versus collenchymatous) exothecial cells, and an urceolate rather than a globose operculate urn. <i>Aphanorrhegma serratum</i> has been reported from Texas by H. A. Crum and L. E. Anderson (1981). I have seen only one collection (Duke) from that state, but the specimen lacks collenchymatous exothecial cells, bears a distinct annulus, and hence is here referred to <i>Physcomitrium immersum</i>.</p>
