Plagiochilaceae

Plagiochilaceae are a family of liverworts, small non-flowering plants. They thrive in moist, shaded environments, often forming dense, green mats on soil or logs. Their leaves are typically arranged in two overlapping rows, creating a characteristic flattened appearance. This structure helps in retaining moisture, crucial for their survival in their native habitats.
