Plants to 40 cm, green, yellowish, reddish, or brownish. Stems medium to robust, rigid; stem and branch apices swollen and loosely foliate, sometimes tightly short-attenuate; axillary hairs 500–650 µm, 5–8 cells, basal cell quadrate, red, distal cells long-cylindric, hyaline or reddish. Leaves monomorphic, erect to imbricate when dry or moist, firm, ovate, ovate-lanceolate, or oblong-lanceolate, concave to tubular-concave, 2.5–5.5 mm; margins erect or plane at base, erect to incurved at apex; apex acute to subtruncate; medial laminal cells linear-fusiform, 80–180 × 8–15 µm. Perigonia with leaves 1–1.2 mm. Perichaetia with leaves oval to suborbiculate, 2.4–2.8 mm, apex obtuse. Seta 0.1–0.3 mm.

Discussion
Dry plants of Fontinalis novae-angliae have concave leaves, but plants from fast moving streams sometimes have flat leaves with narrowly reflexed margins when dry. There are two distinct expressions of F. novae-angliae. The typical expression has somewhat lax plants with well-spaced, broad, moderately concave leaves. In the cymbifolium expression the plants are stiff with closely spaced, narrow, tubular-concave leaves. Fontinalis howellii is the only other species in the genus with tubular-concave leaves; however, its stem leaves are keeled-conduplicate.
Fontinalis novae-angliae has been confused with F. sphagnifolia, which differs in having long, tightly attenuate stem and branch apices. Fontinalis dalecarlica and F. novae-angliae have often been confused because both have firm, concave leaves. But F. dalecarlica is a slender species with narrow leaves (stem leaves 0.5–1.2 versus 0.7–2 mm wide) that usually have plane apical leaf margins when moist and reflexed proximal leaf margins when dry.
