|discussion=<p>Pohlia cardotii is a rare alpine species characterized by dull green, relatively broad leaves with wide costae and recurved margins. The distal medial laminal cells of P. cardotii have more or less porose walls. The sporophytes are erect, with irregular exostome teeth, a low endostomial basal membrane, and narrow, slightly keeled, broadly perforate segments. This species sometimes forms deep turfs in moist alpine sites.</p>
