|discussion=<p>The shape of the leaf base in <i>Tomentypnum falcifolium</i> is best observed while the leaves remain attached to the stem. The species is widespread but more sporadic than <i>T. nitens</i>, occurring across the boreal and subarctic areas of Canada, extending south into the northeastern United States.</p>
