|discussion=<p><i>Tortula guepinii</i> resembles <i>T. hoppeana</i> of montane and subarctic distribution in North America and elsewhere, but it is smaller, with leaves less than 2 mm, and cells of the leaf margin are distinctly less papillose at the apex. <i>Tortula plinthobia</i> of the southeastern and southwestern United States has distal laminal cells only 10–13 µm wide.</p>
