--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>small, bright green. <b>Stems</b> 0.5–1.5 cm, distinctly singly rosulate, innovations short, rosulate. <b>Leaves</b> of main rosette and innovations similar, regularly spirally twisted around stem, erect-spreading when moist, obovate, weakly concave, 0.5–2.5 mm; base not decurrent; margins recurved to mid leaf, distinctly serrulate distally, limbidium present, of 1–3 rows of cells; apex acute; costa long-excurrent, awn sometimes hyaline, slender, irregularly twisted when dry; proximal laminal cells long-rectangular in rosette leaves; medial and distal cells short-rhomboidal, 12–25 µm wide, 3–4:1, walls thin, not porose. <b>Specialized</b> asexual reproduction by rhizoidal tubers, usually on long rhizoids away from stem base, red-brown, same color as rhizoids, 200–300 µm, smooth or almost so. <b>Sexual</b> condition dioicous. <b>Capsule</b> inclined, red-brown, cylindric to elongate-pyriform, 3–5 mm.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>Traits diagnostic for the protean <i>Rosulabryum capillare</i> are leaves spirally twisted around the stem, long awn, distinct border, and serrulate margins, small size, rosulate innovations, and rhizoidal tubers the same color as the rhizoids. <i>Rosulabryum gemmascens</i> has irregularly contorted leaves with a much weaker border and nearly entire margins, and elongate somewhat imbricate innovations of small red-brown ovate leaves. <i>Rosulabryum laevifilum</i> has a much more variable costa that sometimes does not reach the apex, green leaves, and filiform gemmae. <i>Rosulabryum torquescens</i> has irregularly contorted leaves with strongly serrate margins and red to crimson tubers, brighter than the rhizoids, and is usually synoicous.</p>
