--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>slender and delicate, aquatic or prostrate, with a conspicuous terminal bud; dark greenish to purplish brown in submerged plants to deep salmon-red in prostrate plants, capitulum quite indistinct but with distinct terminal bud. <b>Stems</b> pale green to brown; superficial cortex of 1–2 layers of thin-walled enlarged cells. <b>Stem</b> leaves broadly ovate, 1.5–2(2.5) mm; straight; hyaline cells fibrillose and nearly aporose, with single small pores occasionally found in the distal cell ends on the concave surface. <b>Branches</b> lacking or short and slender. <b>Branch</b> fascicles none or 1 spreading branch. <b>Branch</b> leaves when present similar to stem leaves but smaller, 0.8–1.2 mm, hyaline cells fibrillose and mostly aporose, 1–6 irregularly round-shaped membrane gaps in some cells near apex on convex surface. <b>Sexual</b> condition dioicous. <b>Capsule</b> usually immersed in perichaetiale leaves, but may be slightly emergent, pseudostomata absent from capsule surface. <b>Spores</b> 29–41 µm, coarsely papillose on both surfaces, indistinct raised sculpture on distal surface; proximal laesura less than 0.5 spore radius.</span><!--
