Orthotrichales

Orthotrichales comprises a group of mosses known for their robust, cylindrical capsules and wiry, upright shoots. Typically found clinging to the bark of trees in temperate woodlands, these mosses thrive in environments that offer a combination of moisture and partial shade. Their dense, often curled leaves help retain water, facilitating survival in fluctuating climatic conditions.
