Plants small, in tufts, orange. Stems 1–6 cm, 0.5 mm wide, erect to ascending, sparingly branched. Leaves erect-imbricate, straight, ovate-lanceolate, not to slightly plicate, 1 mm; margins partially recurved, serrulate distally; apex short, flexuose, subhyaline; costa double, short; basal laminal cells shorter than medial cells, brownish yellow; medial cells oblong-linear, 48–64 × 8 µm. Specialized asexual reproduction rare, by clusters of propagula in leaf axils, claviform, multicellular. Sporophytes unknown.


Habitat: Moist tundra, humus, soil, rock ledges, crevices
Elevation: low to high elevations (10-2800 m)

Discussion

Orthothecium strictum is distinguished by stems 0.5 mm wide and 1–6 cm long, and the indistinctly plicate, erect-imbricate, narrowly lanceolate leaves with revolute margins, ending in a short, flexuose, subhyaline acumination. The perichaetial leaves are ovate-lanceolate. A single collection (Alaska, Steere 18846, NY) had claviform multicellular propagula present in axils of leaves.

Selected References

None.
