Leucodontales

Leucodontales is a group of mosses that predominantly drape over tree bark and rocks, creating lush green mats in moist woodland areas. Their leaves are typically pale green, soft, and curl slightly when dry, aiding in water retention. This adaptive feature allows leucodontales to thrive in environments where moisture levels fluctuate, showcasing their resilience and ecological role in forest ecosystems.
