Plants medium-sized, green, glossy. Stems 0.5–3.5 cm. Leaves ± erect, lanceolate, 0.6–1.6 mm; margins serrulate to serrate in distal 1/3; costa subpercurrent; distal medial laminal cells rhombic to linear-rhomboidal, 60–105 µm, walls thin. Specialized asexual reproduction usually present when sterile; axillary gemmae in dense clusters, oblong-linear to linear-vermicular, white, pale green, or rarely pale orange, hyaline, leaf primordia restricted to apex, erect, peglike, elongate. Sexual condition dioicous; perigonial leaves ovate; perichaetial leaves weakly differentiated, narrowly lanceolate. Seta orange-brown. Capsule inclined 95–180°, brown to stramineous, pyriform, neck 1/3 urn length; exothecial cells short-rectangular, walls sinuate; stomata superficial; annulus present; operculum convex-conic; exostome teeth yellow-brown, narrowly triangular-acute; endostome hyaline, basal membrane 1/2 exostome length, segments distinctly keeled, broadly perforate, cilia short to rudimentary. Spores 16–21 µm, finely roughened.
Phenology: Capsules mature summer (Jun–Aug).
Habitat: Acid, sandy disturbed soil, path banks, stream banks

Discussion
Pohlia proligera is a relatively common species in boreal and high-montane habitats. The leaves are glossy, with dense, feltlike clusters of whitish, pale green, or sometimes pale orange gemmae in their axils. The gemmae are linear-vermicular with one or two peglike apical leaf primordia.
