Discussion
Plagiothecium berggrenianum is an Arctic species that has been confused with P. cavifolium, or with julaceous forms of P. denticulatum and P. laetum. The acuminate leaves with recurved apices separate P. berggrenianum from P. denticulatum, while the inflated, oval cells in the decurrencies will distinguish it from P. cavifolium and P. laetum.
