Revision as of 21:14, 16 December 2019

Plants to 15 cm, wiry. Stems 1–2 mm wide across leafy stem, irregularly to regularly 1–2(–3)-pinnate, often somewhat frondose or bushy, branches slender, innovations arching. Stem leaves erect- to wide-spreading, distant, broadly ovate to deltoid, slightly concave, 0.8–2(–2.5) × 0.8–1.5 mm; margins serrulate basally, spinose-serrate distally; apex gradually narrowed; costa usually double, sometimes single, single and 2-fid, or triple; medial laminal cells 30–65 × 4–7 µm. Branch leaves loosely imbricate, ovate, 0.4–1.2 × 0.3–0.8 mm; costa often single, but variable. Seta 2–4.5 cm. Capsule ovoid-ellipsoid, 1.5–2.5 mm.


Habitat: Soil, humus, old logs, and rock in moist forests, especially under spruce and fir
Elevation: low to high elevations (0-2000 m)

Discussion

In addition to the numerous highly branched paraphyllia, stems in Hylocomiastrum umbratum (but not H. pyrenaicum) also bear some scattered larger paraphyllia. These are more than twice the size of typical paraphyllia, are lanceolate-subulate with toothed margins, and closely resemble the foliose pseudoparaphyllia. Under a dissecting microscope these larger paraphyllia are clearly visible at 30× scattered among the shorter paraphyllia. In otherwise difficult specimens, the presence of these larger foliose paraphyllia can be used to distinguish H. umbratum from H. pyrenaicum.
