Plants light green to yellowish or brownish. Stems 4–9 cm, 2-pinnate, frondose; paraphyllia papillose usually at or near cell ends. Stem leaves ± incurved basally and wide-spreading apically when dry, spreading with reflexed apices when moist, broadly ovate, distinctly plicate, 1 mm; margins plane at least when removed from stem, rarely ± revolute proximally, papillose-serrulate, more strongly so in acumen; apex abruptly acuminate; costa nearly filling acumen but disappearing near apex; distal laminal cells rhombic to oblong-rhombic, to 24 × 8–10 µm. Branch leaves apical cell truncate, multipapillose. Primary branch leaves to 0.5 mm; costa shorter. Secondary branch leaves 0.2 mm; apex acute; costa 1/3–2/3 leaf length. Perichaetial leaves to 4.2 mm, margins denticulate, sometimes dentate or notched near base of acumen. Seta 2–4.2 cm. Capsule 2–3.5 mm; operculum 0.7–1 mm, long-conic or bluntly short-rostrate; endostome cilia in groups of 2 or 3. Spores 11–16 µm, smooth or nearly so.
Phenology: Capsules mature fall–winter.
Habitat: Moist soil, humus, rock, logs, bark at base of trees, calcareous habitats, woodlands, clearings, timber trails
Elevation: low to high elevations

Discussion
The specific epithet of Thuidium recognitum was applied by Hedwig because he recognized the many differences that separate the species from T. delicatulum: stem leaves that are shortly, broadly, and abruptly acuminate and plicate, with margins plane or nearly so; costa spreading out and nearly filling the acumen; stem leaf apices wide-spreading from an arched and incurved base; perichaetial leaves eciliate; paraphyllia papillose at or near cell ends; and operculum not or only shortly and bluntly rostrate. The secondary branch leaves of T. recognitum are erect-spreading when dry or moist and have rhombic distal laminal cells, 8–12 × 8–10 µm, that are thick-walled and stoutly 1-papillose with papillae somewhat curved.
