Growing on roadside soil, mixed collection with Bryum argenteum and a Syntrichia-like acrocarp. This species has 1-mm gametophytes and 0.6-cm leaves. The leaves appear to be julaceous when both dry and wet? The mid leaf cells are rectangular and about 40 x 16 microns, the basal cells are about 26 x 16 microns, the costa is percurrent and there are no papillae seen. Seems to be one of the Bryaceae, but had a hard time keying this out in Norris and Shevock.
