Leskeaceae

Leskeaceae is a family of mosses that thrive in damp, shaded environments. These mosses exhibit small, lustrous green leaves densely packed on slender stems, forming cushiony mats. Their habitats, often near streams or moist woodlands, allow them to retain moisture efficiently. The capsules, slightly inclined or hanging, contribute to their distinctive reproduction.
