Stems with branches often flagellate. Leaves shrunken when dry, erectopatent when moist, concave, 1–1.5 × 2–3 mm; costa sometimes 2-fid. Perichaetia terminal on axillary branches. Seta hyaline, very slender. Capsule 1.5–2 × 0.5–1 mm including hypophysis; columella included; exostome teeth of 2 layers of cells, short, truncate. Spores yellow-green.
