Discussion
Schwetschkeopsis fabronia is a very slender, delicate moss typically with an evenly combed appearance due to the branches generally being directed downward in an orderly fashion. Clasmatodon parvulus is somewhat similar to and often occurs with S. fabronia. In the field, Clasmatodon can generally be distinguished from Schwetschkeopsis by its dull color and less even branch arrangement. The stems and branches of Clasmatodon are similar in size, while in Schwetschkeopsis the stems are generally noticeably larger than the branches. Microscopically the two are easily separated by the well-developed single costa of Clasmatodon versus the faint, short and double or frequently absent costa of Schwetschkeopsis. Many colonies of Schwetschkeopsis have stems composed almost entirely or in part of long, flagellate branches. Both H. A. Crum and L. E. Anderson (1981) and W. D. Reese (1984) reported that Schwetschkeopsis is ecostate, but many leaves exhibit a very faint, short, double costa. Only four collections, two each from Florida and Tennessee, were observed with mature sporophytes (two in October, two in February).
