|discussion=<p>Dicranella palustris is known by its squarrose-spreading, decurrent leaves ending in a narrow but rounded and crenulate tip. Lax, relatively large expressions of D. schreberiana, often given recognition as var. robusta, are smaller and have leaves with slender, acute tips, serrated margins, and broad cells. The New Hampshire and California reports were by A. J. Grout (1928–1940, vol. 1, as D. squarrosa) and D. H. Norris and J. R. Shevock (2004), respectively.</p>
