Gymnomitriaceae

Gymnomitriaceae are a family of liverworts, typically forming dense, leafy mats on moist, shaded rocks and soil. Distinctive for their small, scale-like leaves and often vibrant green coloring, these plants excel in retaining moisture, crucial for survival in their humid environments. Their compact, overlapping leaves help prevent water loss, demonstrating a specialized adaptation to their ecological niche.
