Species: Plagiobryum zieri

Mosses in dense, soft tufts, shiny, white or yellowish and often tinged with pink. Stems red or pink, considerably forked by julaceous innovations. Leaves of innovations 1-2 mm long, crowded and erect or imbricate, thin and soft, concave, ovate or broadly oblong-ovate, acute and rather abruptly narrowed to a short, reflexed point; margins plane and entire; costa reddish, ending in or slightly below the leaf point. Leaves of the fruiting axis oblong-lanceolate, with margins irregularly recurved. Capsules horizontal or somewhat pendulous, the neck up to about twice the length of the urn; peristome teeth somewhat shorter than the endostome, very finely or obscurely papillose (Crum and Anderson 1981).
